No, I'm sorry if my wording was confusing. If you have RR points, it definitely pays to redeem them. Many folks, including me, who aren't regular WN travelers have them (and a companion pass) because of the credit card deals. Honestly, WN's fares have been so high this year that there's been a disincentive to use them (hello, Avios!). This sale is good for using those points but, sadly, there are some serious date limitations.
