Mixing SQ and LX/LH for awards
With the recent changes on KF awards and the disappearance of fuel surcharges, I am wondering how that work if you add an LH/LX flight to a SQ one. Example:
SIN-ZRH on SQ in C, one way: 85k.
SIN-ZRH-GVA on SQ then LX in C, one way: is that 80k as a star award?
Considering the low fuel surcharge on a ZRH-GVA flight, it would clearly be a plus for the pax who ultimately wants to go to GVA?
Thanks.

I don't know if LX levies fuel surcharges, but if they do, then yes, it would be charged.

Edit: that was as standalone fare. Combined with SQ flight the YQ is $79 SGD plus a CH of $23.00. So that Gives $104 SGD for the addon.

Remember that SQ charges YQ on revenue fares but not on award redemptions. So the YQ should just be as is for the LX sector.
