Companion pass is out of reach for me, and WN frequently is mediocre in terms of price if their nearest service points are outstations as is the case here. (We're talking more points/miles for a round trip than Delta, which is actually often non-horrible using a local airport as a starting point.) Only reason I've even got an account with WN is that my husband likes to use them to visit family in DTW, and I can run Checkpoints for some largely passive earnings into that program.
