Even if you don't like their other redemption offers you can take it as a statement credit. 20,000 points equals $200. That's a minimum of 4% back in cash.
5000$ in spending means 20k points = 400$ in ticket value = 8% back
You also get 20$ towards fees like baggage.
Also if you can do it by 6/15,
you get 5000 in NW miles = 50$ min - 100$ max value
So you are looking at ~500$ value for 5000$ spend = 10% return
I'm certainly willing to take this deal.

Even if you just pay taxes, you only pay 2.5% in fees!

Spend $2,000/2,500 points
Total is 20,000 points/ free flight
Code 37019 flexperks.com/business15
This is the better deal, but only for the business card holders

I am not sure what the real limitations are.
Even if you do not use this after June 15, you can still take the offer now.
