Looking at the taxes & fees, the largest amount is for Airline Insurance Surcharge of JPY186,320 which is about $1230. I don't remember seeing this item before; is it something new?
I'm fairly sure I am using the same mix of airlines: JL, CX, BA, IB, AA

Thanks.
JL imposes fuel surcharges and airline insurance surcharges as detailed here:

The airline insurance charge is per segment while the fuel surcharge is imposed on each segment to and from Japan. The insurance surcharge alone shouldn't be that much, I would expect that some other surcharges or taxes are being lumped in with it.
