Does that mean BA flights have the additional high YQ surcharge but redeeming for partner flights DO NOT? How about redeeming BA miles for Cathay Pacific (CX) flights?

Recently redeemed for del-hlg-lax on CX 1 way. Cost around 370$ in taxes for business. So there should be some. Expert can chime.

It depends on the partner. For CX flights there is a YQ that adds a couple hundred dollars to the award costs.
