Meaning of ‘YQ’ on airline tickets

flight, How to 1 Minute

It actually means fuel surcharge, according to ehow.com. Maybe they were looking for a combination that would not appear anywhere in the English language.

Maybe I should have chosen a better twitter handle/wordpress.com subdomain. But it’s my name!
