Conclusion
Nice fare that works across the board from many North American cities to several destinations in Asia. The fare allows for some combinations with UA/CA/AS/VX for North America domestic transfers, and a stopover in Taipei for a small fee. It also offers certain flexibility for changes and cancellations. Moreover, with a little luck and planning you can probably try their infamous Hello Kitty flight!
