It is a J product, but SQ started the trend of surcharges for the very long non-stops operating SIN-EWR and SIN-LAX for the RTW fare. The weird thing is that if you take the SIN-FRA-JFK flight (one flight number), the surcharge does not apply. Now AC is copying SQ on the long YYZ-HKG flight. The best oneworld analog would be the CX HKG-JFK flight incurring a surcharge. SK also has a surcharge for their sleeper seats; these are a few J seats with extra recline.
