Shanghai and Amsterdam too.
My current passport is at 96 pages and while it's probably harder to add pages these days, I'm sure I could find some consular officer somewhere to pop some more in if I end up needing it.
I recall you, hfly and I have all mentioned having a current or previous US passport with well over 100 pages full of stamps. All three of us have probably done this additional page insert done outside of the US when getting new inserts was free at US consulates/embassies.
Compared to several years ago, I'm less likely now to get to another US passport with over 100 pages, as the cost to add additional pages has become high enough that I would consider going for a renewal US passport instead.
