You could convert the array to a JSON string:

jQuery.ajax({type: "POST", 
             url: "import", 
             data: {places: JSON.stringify(places), kind: "pub" }
            });

and on the server side, decode the string. If you use PHP, it would be json_decode:

$places = json_decode($_POST['places'], true);
