ANA has reduced carrier imposed surcharges to $2 on round trip tickets to and from The U.S (this is only on flights from U.S. to Japan and vice versa). Previously taxes and fees would price out at $250 or more, now they are pricing at less than $60 round trip. You can transfer to ANA from American Express Membership Rewards at a rate of 1:1.
