What information do we neet to inform her of?

EDIT:
I think if I were in her position, I would stay away from all computers. I have a feeling we're not going to ever hear from Dana again.

Ok, here's a Spec without strong legs, but at least an interesting theory:

I know we should assume, since it's the info we're given, but is it possible that Dana is saying she's leaving, but is in fact staying, to monitor the situation? (It's what I would do... play dead and see what happens!) But I do recognize that her plans were in effect before things all went to Phase Two, and you know, that little bit about Melissa being a sore, sore loser and Dana fearing for her life...

So in other words, can we test this theory? I know it's very weak, but I for one would love to find some way to see if Dana did actually leave, or not...

Interesting.

I think it's safe to say she went. Not only was it planned before phase two, but she was so excited about it that she built the countdown to China. She also mentions that she's going because she feels to "known". Then her Phase Two blog mentions "it knows me now" (her italics). Also, she didn't change her plans when this all started. If that wasn't gonna talk her out of going, I don't think Melissa taking her picture is gonna make her more likely to stay.

There's no way to verify any of this, but I think that's another reason to assume she went, at least for now. I'd be interested to see if she tries to communicate with us sometime down the line, tho!

Also, if you want to see where Dana could go with the All Asia Pass visit this map page.

If you check the map from the link above, it appears that the only place in China proper that her All-Asia pass will get her is Beijing. I know that Hong Kong is part of China now, but my head still doesn't accept that. Not sure about Singapore.

Why have an all access pass if you plan on disapearing into the bush? South East asia is a pretty hopping place technologicaly these days, and may not be the best place to hide from a vengful A.I.

She could also go to Shanghai, although that would cost more.

Probably because it is cheaper. One of the weird things about Cathay is that it is often cheaper to fly with an All Asia Pass even if you are just going to one destination. For example. A flight from San Francisco to Bejing in November (roundtrip) will cost about $1400. The all Asia Pass can be had for as little as $999. I don't know about other airlines, but this seems like a good deal to me.
