I do not understand this claim. The taxes are the same for international destinations whether one travels on this pass or on a paid ticket. The difference is in the airfare component. Certainly this pass would be a questionable deal for a single trip somewhere. But if one is willing to make two trips to the Caribbean the $599 will get very close to covering the fare component of the costs. Three trips makes it almost certain.
