Export plans/sequences to ASIair?

I don't think so. I believe they are misusing the term "plan." What this is, I believe, is the ability to import positions for a mosaic. The purpose of SkyTools is to tell you when to image, e.g. get the OIII filter from 11 PM to midnight. That is a schedule. A plan just says to do 40x300s exposures, without a date or time attached. I believe this import of positions isn't even a plan...

If I am wrong, please point me to some documentation that says otherwise and I will be happy to look at it.

I recently purchased Sky Tools 4 primarily as a learning tool. I too use the ASI Air ( past 3 years ) and do not have a problem "building" a plan in the AIR software interface.
Having only begun using ST4, I apologize if I did not  thoroughly research this forum for a way to print out the schedule that ST4 creates for a particular target.
I plan to manually input that info into the AIR software. What filters to use, exposure time, quantity of subs, best time to image, etc. etc.

I purchased the software hoping that was/is the case - please tell me there is.

Thank you in advance
