Skyteam Asia Pass

Hi everyone. I just recently discovered the Skyteam region-specific passes (have known about the "Round the World Pass" for a while), and I'm wondering if you all could tell me a bit about them since the website doesn't give many details. I'm specifically looking at the Asia pass--would it be worth it for a 1.5-week trip hopping from HKG > BKK > SIN? I have never been to Asia before and am just now starting to plan our trip, so any info about hopping around that you can offer would be appreciated

Not very useful, as each flight segment counts as a coupon. Almost never a benefit unless flying full fare (or YBM segments).

The thread 6 posts down or so in this forum http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/skyte...king-line.html contains much useful info including recently-posted fare rules courtesy of 'kvs'

I decided the value is mixed - unless you are taking particularly long flights with each coupon they are probably bad value (although the ICN-AKL leg seems like good value for US$350)
