Basically I want to book AA J, I think if I use AA miles I will be charged $20 or so. Will QR only charge that if I use QF miles? I would rather use my Amex points than AA miles, esp with the 20% Amex bonus it will be 10k or so less points than AA miles.
Qantas will almost certainly apply the carrier surcharge of USD600 for business class travel , plus approx $32.90 in taxes
If you book using AA miles, I believe that you will only pay , iirc, the tax of $5.60 with the other taxes waived on free tickets
