It may have been unclear in my post that this relates to - When I questioned Cathay - trying to get to the root of why they were charging so much tax for 5 x AA N/A segments and 4 x Qantas segments they stated that they were charging no fuel surcharges for AA North American flights (as in AA don't charge fuel surcharges).
Anyway, after a lot of pushing, a lot of moaning and finally asking to have the exact breakdown of figures e-mailed over I finally had the ticket re-issued for $150.00 in taxes (+ re-route fee) extra - down from quotes of $740.00 (+RRF) to $515 (+RRF) to the final figure in less than a week. Saved almost $600.00 but lost 5 flying days
To get back to the original thread - at least Cathay re-issued a pre-rule change ticket with no problem on that score.
