If people can afford an air ticket from Heathrow they can afford the

Fares from Heathrow aren't necessarily expensive at all. Apart from
that I'd agree.

What is meant by a premium on the DLR to Lewisham?

It was suggested as a way of raising money, but not done in the end.
Wasn't the underwater bit going to be an extra zone? Or was it the
whole of the extension?
