IIRC you get charged the YQ for each leg
Like it doesn't make sense to charge that amount of YQ for a single leg.

Can anyone confirm one way or another whether SQ charges YQ for award travel on UA metal INTERNATIONAL (not Americas)? I've seen conflicting reports out there.

If you book with Aeroplan there are some work-arounds to reduce the YQ, like hidden city, open jaw, or add another leg with A3/TK.

Huh? You're saying if I book JFK-FRA-IST {FRA-IST on TK} there will be no YQ?
You can say what you think when you think what you say.
