If you are connecting to short haul, it's a different story. Here's BHD-MAD

Code:

INTERNATIONAL CONSTRUCTION

FARE--RT
                            PUBLISHED AMOUNT   CONVERTED AMOUNT
ADDON      CITIES  F/B      CUR                VIA NUC
ADDON ORG  BFS-LON OLAPV1S  GBP        60.00   GBP       60.00 
           ATP ZONE 200     ADD-ON TARIFF AARBS/986            
PUBLISHED  LON-MAD OLAPV1S  GBP        38.00   GBP       38.00 
 
GBP CONVERTED TO USD USING BSR 1 USD - 0.657462 GBP

That's interesting, thanks. Sometimes it doesn't feel that way, and the difference can be substantially more than the LHR passenger charge.
