Routes that do not have fuel surcharges (YQ) when operated by carriers that normally charge YQ:
1. USA-Germany-Other country. If only the Germany-other country segment is on LH it does not have YQ. E.g. DFW-FRA-BLR with TATL on UA and FRA-BLR on LH.
2. USA-Canada-Other country. The USA-Canada segment on AC does not have YQ if the Canada-Other country segment is operated by a carrier that does not charge YQ. E.g. DFW-YYZ-ADD.
1. USA-Germany-Other country. If only the Germany-other country segment is on LH it does not have YQ. E.g. DFW-FRA-BLR with TATL on UA and FRA-BLR on LH.
2. USA-Canada-Other country. The USA-Canada segment on AC does not have YQ if the Canada-Other country segment is operated by a carrier that does not charge YQ. E.g. DFW-YYZ-ADD.
Please list your AP Taxes and SURCHARGES on AP reward tickets

I just looked up Altitude benefits and saw YQ waiver for reward INTL flights for SE's. Why were you charged 262.40?

SYD-YVR-YYZ on AC34/AC110 in J, only $98.20 each ticket. Only got 2 but need one more. I already have 3 J flights to get home but with Asiana and 10+ hours flight time not to mention the YQ ($425 each). If the 3rd ticket doesn't show it's only $30 to cancel. Easy risk/reward ratio there!
Don't understand the low AC metal YQ. Not that I'm complaining....
