Fine and while its quite possible/likely that BA has recently reduced their fuel charges but in Dec I looked at a F award HKG/YYZ on CX using BA mile and the charges were about $165.00 for that one leg.
I eventually booked a OW F award on AA TPA/MIA/LHR/NRT/PEK/HKG/YYZ/ORD/TPA and the charges for the entire itin came up to $157
( it includes the same HKG/YYZ CX leg)
I am pretty certain if I booked the above on BA it would have been substantially higher.
