Star Alliance launches Micronesia Airpass
Star Alliance has added a further fare product for customers to explore additional islands in the Pacific Ocean.
With the Micronesia Airpass, passengers can purchase up to 10 flights on the Continental Airlines and United network across Micronesia, all in a single ticket.
Travel on the Micronesia Airpass can commence from any Star Alliance destination in Japan, as well as from Cairns, Guam, Hong Kong, Manila, Nadi, Palau or Saipan and is available only in conjunction with an international Star Alliance flight into any of these destinations.
In addition to Guam, customers can choose to travel to: Chuuk, Kosrae, Pohnpei, and Yap in the Federated States of Micronesia; Kwajalein Atoll and Majuro in the Marshall Islands; Rota and Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands as well as Palau.
Christopher Korenke, vice president commercial, Star Alliance said in the past travellers visiting Micronesia had limited choice of air travel and had to purchase separate tickets on different airlines to get around.
Through the Star Alliance network, passengers can now travel on any of the member carriers serving the designated gateways and connect to the Continental Airlines and United network in Micronesia.
Fares are set according to booking class and distance travelled, starting at US$75 for flights up to 150 miles and rising to US$375 for flights covering between 2001 and 2250 miles.
Taxes, fees and surcharges are extra and some conditions apply.
