With most airlines the YQ charges mirror revenue tickets. For example, before calling BMI to redeem miles for a given itinerary, I have calculated what the total taxes and fees should be on ITA software. If I get a good BMI agent, they will quote me the same amount as I was expecting. If a bad agent gives me a higher amount, I will challenge their calculation until they correct it. The amount charged is not random.

How much YQ did A3 charge?
What was your routing?
What would the YQ for your routing have been on a revenue ticket?
