That difference is the fact that AC and LH flights are being charged this "Administrative surcharge" and other airlines are not.
United's program doesn't charge YQ, but you will pay through the nose in miles.

Win some, lose some.

It could be worse on Aeroplan - we could be charged YQ on all carriers
