Excessive premiumm to LHR from Z1 - £7.20,* from Z2 only £4.50, otherwise normal fares.
An important question I can't see an answer to is: does a zone 1-6
travelcard cover travel on the Elizabeth Line as far as Heathrow?

Yes it does. Also Freedom Passes.

What appears to be happening here is that while PAYG fares have a
premium, you will reach the existing (and continuing) daily cap very
quickly. Verily a tourist tax on people doing one one-way trip to/from
Heathrow on a particular day.

The fudge continues, even under TfL management, that the ex Heathrow
Connect (now Elizabeth Line) stations may be geographically in Z6, but
they are not for fares purposes. Apart from this concession about
capping/all-day tickets.
