Less actually, breakdown of mine below. But even if I used QF HND-SYD-AKL and JL MNL-HND it's quite similar, that version draws only 74,930 in YR / YQ, taxes would be slightly lower without the HKG transits so prices at 1,036,310. So while Japan may have a slightly higher base price, you don't have the wild swings in YQ / YR that you see on OSL and CAI itineraries. I can even put BA in there some places and it doesn't change significantly.

My itinerary is NRT CX HKG CX AKL QF DFW AA SAL AA DFW QR DOH QR NBO (Surface to EBB) QR DOH QR CAI QR DOH QR DUB QR DOH QR MNL CX HKG CX. (The RJ I mentioned in my earlier post is nested in at CAI, it's the well known ex-CAI RJ deal in the Premium forum. I'll go back to CAI and continue the itinerary next summer) I can use BA CAI-LHR-DUB and it doesn't change it much. When I try SAL-NBO it breaks and won't price with BA or IB, if I broke it it in DFW maybe it would work, I didn't try but why would I fly BA over QR QSuites, There's another option DUB-MNL on BA to LHR then CX, that adds 30,000 JPY, but I'm still very happy with QR on that route.

Looking at my eticket now:
Base: 895200 JPY
Total Taxes and Airport Fees alone: 74,130 JPY which is quite a chunk but I have 2 transits in HKG which are extremely high.
YR: 50,490 JPY, no YQ at all.

Last year I had a QF issued DONE5 and was somewhat similar:
Base: 895,200
Taxes and Airport fees: 86,000
YR 25,050, no YQ
Total: 1,006,250 but QF comped some of the airport fees during an involuntary change adjustment, that's when I added CX flights via HKG that show on the eticket, but I actually paid 991,280 JPY on that one at the start.
