NOT CATHAY PACIFIC..<BR>MALAY AIR PASS HAD MOR FLIGHTS AVAILIBLE AND LAST DAY TO FLY WAS DEC 31,,,<BR>I BELIEV CATHAY;S IS DEC 4..<BR>ONLY BAD THING IS ABOUT THE PASSES..<BR>ALL YOUR FLIGHTS HUB OUT OF HONG KONG FOR CATHAY..<BR>AND KUALA LUMPUR FOR MALAYSIAN AIR..<BR>IM GOING TO PHILIPINES , BALI, AND THAILAND. DURING HIGH SEASON.. $950 FOR NINE FLIGHTS DURING PEAK SEASON. LEAVING FROM L.A. ITS WORTH IT.. BUT FINDING A TRAVEL AGENT TO DO IT "RITE" IS DIFFICULT..!

Matthew - these All Asia Passes have some plus points as well as minuses.<BR><BR>Cathay Pacific's costs $999 US<BR>Malaysia Airlines costs $749 US<BR><BR>Both cannot be booked on line - you must use a travel agent<BR><BR>Both involve hub cities;<BR>Cathay Pacific - Hong Kong<BR>Malaysia Airlines - Kuala Lumpur<BR><BR>Both require travel from hub back to hub<BR>Example with Cathay - you want to visit Hong Kong, Bangkok, and Bali. You would have to fly to Bangkok or Bali from Hong Kong then back to Hong Kong in order to flight out to the other destination. You would not be able to fly from Bali to Bangkok.<BR><BR>The ticketing involves a lot of work for the agents and when I tried one, they would look into it only if I left my itinerary with them, so they could research it off-peak.<BR><BR>Still its not bad if you only want to do to three stops and if you don't mind the hub city. Good luck.
