Help with SKYTEAM European Pass
Can someone assist Pl’s - with just how, does the SKYTEAM European Pass work?
For example, hyper-linked to the SKYPASS site from Continental. In viewing the page devoted to the European Pass, conditions, et al. Continental is not listed? What are the costs for the “segment” and what constitutes a “segment”? It indicates that stopovers are allowed – can I assume - that is on the routing only? Or does it require another segment “pass”?
Called Continental International and they essentially do not know. Am attempting to take advantage of the BF specials to Europe in 2005, and would appreciate info on the Pass system? Assume I arrive in Amsterdam, want to stopover in Paris and then continue to Athens? Any and all help would be appreciated.

Information on airpass / RTW tickets has not been updatet yet and does not seem applicable to CO/NW/KL so far...
But I suspect the following regulations will remain the same:
- You need a coupon for every segment you fly
- Every segment is being charged based on the miles flown
- Minimum 3 segments (and 2 stopovers)
- Taxes, fees and fuel surcharges apply
- Max 2 stopovers in the same city
Booking classes:
AF - Q
AZ - T - INTERNATIONAL
V - DOMESTIC
OK - L
So, you should do AMS-AF-CDG-AF-ATH-AF-CDG-AF-AMS (4 coupons) or AMS-AF-CDG-AF-ATH-KL-AMS (3 coupons as soon as KL is valid for Airpass travel).
