Supplements seem quite hefty but I get the impression when the real
service kicks in they will be even higher.

The formula for the 'via HS1' fares premium is no secret, it's
published in the Southeastern franchise documents. The Ashford
supplement for the preview service is the same as for the full service
and is in line with this formula.

Which has been discussed here a number of times, and has been calculated to
be about +10% for the longest journeys. Doesn't seem to stop people
exaggerating it at every chance though...
