The last time I flew to Asia on business, I paid $2300 for DC-Seoul-Shanghai-Guangzhou-Bangkok-Sing-KL-Taipei-LAX-DC on Singapore Air and some other national carriers. By the time I paid supplements on an air pass, I might be up in that range, anyway.
I know that Cathay and Air Malaysia have good air passes. Any suggestions?
I know OW has one (not sure about Star).
