The Star Alliance has launched the Star Alliance China Air Pass, following the recent partnership between Air China and Shanghai Airlines. The pass offers travel on domestic routes at prices starting around $400 for a three coupon ticket and increasing to a maximum of about $1,200 for a 10-coupon ticket. Travel within China can be roundtrip, include multiple stops or can be open-jaw, which involves land travel for the shortest part of the trip. Flights are in economy class and travel may last up to two months. The pass can be purchased in conjunction with a return ticket or an around the world ticket to China from any Star Alliance member.
This could be a huge money saver. While some flights within China are quite reasonable, other would be much more than $120-135 per segment. US carriers in the Star Alliance include United and USAirways. Transpacific carries include ANA, Thai, Singapore, Air New Zealand, and of course Air China.

- I've dreamed them, seen them, experienced them. Sunsets in the Indian Ocean off Western Australia; sunrises over the Taj Mahal or Borobudur; morning mists on the Maasi Mara or evening cool in Sabi Sands. France to French Polynesia, I've been there and I've loved it.
