Sorry, but I still don't understand why. You get perks like being bumped up to first class and staying in a free hotel, but you wouldn't need these perks if you weren't doing the unnecessary travel in the first place.
OK, you get $200 to use at Tiffany's and another $200 toward flights, but at best this just balances out the $300-400 you're spending monthly on air travel anyway.
Maybe you just enjoy flying a lot more than I do, but this Anchorage trip you describe sounds like a LOT of work for very little payoff. Am I misunderstanding something?
EDIT Thanks for the upvotes, but I was mistaken here. OP is making this trip once annually in exchange for lots of perks when traveling throughout the year. Still probably not something I would go to the trouble of doing but not totally batshit crazy like I thought.
