Additional stupid question - the oceanic rate covers vast swaths of the north Atlantic and north Pacific. So if an aircraft is to cross the US, it also has to pay the distance traveled in the oceanic zone as well? So a flight from SYD-LAX has to pay significantly more in oceanic fees than say, NRT-LAX? Or LHR-JFK less than JNB-JFK?
