Is this an EF bug or am I doing something wrong?

As has always been the case, the GDS can only return fares with YR/YQ only if the rules of the surcharge are not flight dependent. If knowing the flight is required to know the surcharge amount, then the surcharge amount won't be added to the fare tariff since we don't price specific itineraries.
