Heathrow Airport, no longer in zone 6?

There are new line diagrams on Elizabeth line trains that place the Heathrow stations under ‘special fares apply’, when did this change take place? Are zone 1-6 travelcards now no longer valid to Heathrow on the Elizabeth line?

Better yet - as in Manchester (and probably elsewhere) - do away with premium fares because it's an airport.

If only. This isn't entirely TfL's fault, though.

I suspect that if MAG had to pay for a tunnel and to put the station where 80% of people will be going in future (Terminal 2), instead of a 5-600m walk, it would be paid for by a fare loading.
