Internal flights in USA

[Deno]

Hi All,
Wife and I are flying to states next year, and after some advice. I searched the posts, but didn't find what I needed.

Oz to USA and return will be with Qantas. From your abbreviations I am a NB.

Our internal flights will be - LA to Toronto, Montreal to New York, Atlanta to San Fran, Las Vegas to LA. My travel agent told me AA have a "pass" which is cheaper than buying individual flights.

Has anyone heard of this AA "pass", and if so, is it value for money? I was going to fly AA, so the FF points dont go to waste. While the cost is important, it will not be the determining factor. I am happy to fly with another company if it will be a better / easier.

We are going to stay in New York for 7 days, and thought we might fly to Boston for a day. Is it worth the hassle to to spend a day in Boston?

Regards,
Deno

They are probably referring to the oneworld Visit North America pass.
oneworld - Visit North America
There is, helpfully, no price on the website and you'll need to give AA or QF a call to get the prices. However, I believe these are usually more expensive than just going to the open market and buying a ticket.

The AA pass the agent is referring to may not always work out to be the cheapest option, especially now that fares are cheap on the net, however they are generally more flexible if you need to change flights. You might, underline might, find cheaper fares on the net on a single flight however the pass is worthwile considering. So compare costs and see what works best for you.
