I think it would be difficult for anyone to answer "is it worth it" for you.
The opportunity to get face time and ask any questions you may have with several airlines in one afternoon is a great advantage. Getting hiring information (or a prelim interview) directly from a HR rep is very valuable. What price is put put on that value most likely varies by individual.
