Not sure what the premium will be but I'd not be surprised if it is
similar to Heathow Connect. Given the way HAL operate the Heathrow
stations I think it will be a struggle to make Travelcard and / or
Oyster PAYG work in any sort of sensible way. I expect a lot of work
will be required to get to a workable solution.

Make it work like Madrid

Install barriers and make anyone who hasn't already got a "premium" ticket
buy a (suggest 5 pound!) excess from a machine

These barriers don't seem to restrict the passenger flow at MAD and that's
with this being the only rail connection to the airport

Of course, they will have to stop giving "free" rides from T123 to T4 (etc)
