I'm not familiar enough with the other FFP's out there to know this basic question, but why does LH and TG charge carrier surcharges on AP awards, but not on MP? Does the YQ actually go to LH or does AP keep this?

Having access to LH awards without the gouging would actually make me want to use my miles...
