thanks again for your assistance,

Well for other readers then, the above response indicates that I didn't communicate effectively.

Here is what seemed to be expressed as desired:
When using the zones shipping module and choosing a shipping option to have a radio button to show normal shipping and in the same row of text a checkbox to select that would instead add some expedition fee to that normal method.

What I hear: I want to be able to have zone shipping where it is possible to have two different fees available. The description of each to be clear and identify whether it is express shipping or not. If it can be done with a checkbox then that would be a personal preference, but in either case I want to be able to offer a method to both the customer and in the admin identifying that expedited shipping has been chosen.

To accomplish what I "hear", the zones module can be copied, changes made so that the copied code works independent of the original (cloned) and the text associated with that copy be changed to offer the explanation of what it means for selecting that option. In this way, each zone can have a difference in the price for each zone displayed.

Then when the shipping options are displayed, the customer can make a choice of using regular shipping or the now available expedited shipping. Little to no additional work necessary other than following the FAQ instruction on cloning a shipping module...
