Star Alliance launches Circle North Asia Fare

Star Alliance is promoting travel across North Asia with its Circle North Asia Fare.

The new multi-carrier fare is valid on Air China, ANA, Asiana and Shanghai Airlines for flights between China, including Hong Kong and Macau, Japan and Korea.

Travel on the circle fare needs to include all three countries, at least three stopovers and begin and end in the same country.

Reservations for the first international flight have to be made seven days prior to departure, while all subsequent flights can be booked last minute or changed without charge.

Minimum stay on this circle fare is at least three days and with the maximum stay being two months.

Fare levels vary according to class of travel: First, Business or Economy and distance travelled: 4,800 or 6,600 miles.

Tickets can be booked and issued through any Star Alliance member airline or travel agent.

“Our latest fare product was developed because we are seeing increasing demand for travel in this part of Asia,” said Horst Findeisen, Vice President Business Development at Star Alliance. “Circle fares allow customers to explore several countries at their leisure with a single booking, and are becoming more popular with customers who are interested in doing business or spending time in a small geographic zone.”

Star Alliance now offers 13 fare products: the Round-the-World Fare, Circle Asia Fare, Circle North Asia Fare, Circle Pacific Fare, Africa Airpass, Asia Airpass, China Airpass, Europe Airpass, Japan Airpass, Middle East Airpass, North America Airpass, South Pacific Airpass and Thailand Airpass.
