Question Return Subjourney Check

I was pricing out a journey on ITA, and it came out with an interesting fare construction:
Code:
Fare (A1): 	EK LONKUL JRTGB1 fare (rules) 	£1006.00
Fare (B1): 	MH KULLGK C fare (rules) 	MYR 399
Fare (B2): 	MH LGKKUL C fare (rules) 	MYR 399
Fare (A2): 	EK KULLON JRTGB1 fare (rules) 	£1006.00
Tax: 	United Kingdom Passenger Service Charge 	£14.10
Tax: 	United Kingdom Air Passengers Duty 	£80.00
Tax: 	Malaysia Passenger Service & Security Charge 	MYR 9
Tax: 	MH YQ surcharge 	$28.20
Surcharge: 	Return Subjourney Check 	NUC 6709.54
Total for 1 adult passenger: 	£5642.80
(as of Saturday, January 20, 2007 11:52pm; fares loaded Saturday, January 20, 2007 5:11pm)
Does anyone know what this NUC 6709.54 charge is all about?

Cheers

First, what does "subjourney" mean?

I am guessing that this is similar to the HIP check. In this case, the full LON-LGK fare (~10 000 USD) is higher than your LON-KUL + KUL-LGK (~4 000 USD), so a surcharge for the difference (~6 000 USD) is being applied ...
