My stops are BKK, CBR, SYD and LAS.

It is not a million miles away but the taxes seem a shade higher than I was expecting.

Taxes are still between 10 - 20% of the total, which doesn't see unreasonable to me (although it is higher than others were reporting who purchased in HKG). You could get a printout of all the specific charges, the surcharges may have gone up or maybe AA has changed how they collect them.
