Does LANPass charge fuel surcharge on BA awards?

I know this thread is getting old, but is it really possible to "price a BA award on the LAN web site?" I get an error doing this. (I've only redeemed LAN for AA in the past and that required a phone call.) Thanks.

I haven't been able to do it since the switch to Sabre last year...

I've not priced a British ticket on the LANPass site, have used LAN for years and didn't know that was ever possible without using the phone. GRU-LHR is Sao Paolo, Brazil, and anything ex-Brazil can't have YQ tacked on by Brazilian law, so I'd say it's a poor data point for evaluating whether LAN will tack on the heinous BA fuel surcharges.
IME, the LAN agents on the phone have come back with some pretty odd numbers for taxes/fees when pricing. I swear they're pulling out of their ..., but I'm a bit of a pushover and so happy to be able to book after dealing with them for so long. This last bit isn't helpful as a data point, but I'm just wary of anything they report to me now, and calling them is not a fun process, though manageable.
