Experience on any other OW airline?

I'm in the situation that I have fully fledge ticketing offices of virtually all OW carriers within 25km and that the fares from my country are only slightly more expensive than the cheapest ones (e.g. Sweden). Therefore the issue of fuel surcharges becomes the main determinant of the cost of my xONEx trip later this year.

I understand from your information as well as a few others that AA seems to be pretty reasonable and BA very expensive. Has anybody recent experiences booking xONEx through any of the other OW carriers? As I'll have quite a few IB, QF and AY segments, I'm in particular considering these, but also MA and RJ are possibilities.
