Plus both UA and SK are YQ-free anyways, aren't they? So you'd have YQ waived for AC segments, and then you'd have to add the YQ charged for UA and SK to that. So perhaps $0 + $0 = $410 in AC math.

We'll find out real soon. You're right. This is going to be "fun."
Yeah that was the other thing I found odd, that she thought UA and SK would cause YQ to increase

I'm hoping that:
1. This will be done automatically by the booking system.
2. The system will be programmed sanely.

I'm less sure about the second one
