I just received a quote from CX in NRT and the tax and surcharge amounts to around 1,200USD! This seems a little high than I expected (I thought it will be under 1000).

My rouing is NRT-SYD-AKL-SYD-USA (all 6 segments) - LHR-Europe-LHR-Europe-HKG-ASIA-HKGx-NRT.

All 20 segments used. But 1200USD seems a bit steep.
