I used four frequent flyer tickets earned through Northwest's program on Malaysia Airlines. The confirmation I received from Northwest stated that all fuel surcharges were included. I flew from Shanghai to KL to Singapore without a problem. On the way back, I was forced to pay US $227 per ticket.

This seems unfair for two reasons:
1) Northwest indicated that the surchage was included
2) I wasn't told about it until half-way through the flight.

Bad going on the parts of Northwest and Malaysia Airlines.

Anyone else have this problem and any solution?
