I wonder how the ticket prices would be reckoned. Feltham and Heathrow

It goes to an airport, so there will have to be a premium fare outside
the normal local system, ideally with the impression you can use a
normal ticket but something in the small print saying you can't, and the
instructions should be in English only and well hidden. And ideally the
station should have a slightly different name to the airport. Something
random like a suitcase surcharge would add to the fun.
