need some advice re. flight redemption

Would appreciate the advice of all of you miles guru's on this site. I need to book a specific flight over Thanksgiving (specific flight because this ticket is for a child who will be traveling with other family members who have already purchased their tix.)
My options are: 1)Pay $520 on my Citi PremierePass Elite, 2)Use 52,000-68,000 Citi ThankYou points (numbers were different on 2 different phone calls), plus (I think) the tax on the ticket of $54, or 3)Use 50,000 NWA WorldPerks miles.
I am leaning toward using the NWA WorldPerks miles because those are often difficult to redeem for a standard award level. I don't have oodles of points in any of the above programs.
What do you think, and thanks for the advice!
