I was hoping the 30 day advance would be £10.75 I read up-thread. I still paid £14.30 as I got to add to my Heathrow Rewards account. I also liked how I could pay in USD and thus avoid int'l surcharges. I wasn't sure if I could do that on Heathrow Connect. Moreover, I couldn't see how to buy a one-way open ticket on Heathrow Connect. It looked like I had to select a specific train thus it was worth spending £14.30.

These changes don’t apply to weekends, however. The good news is that the weekend cost of a 90 day advance single has gone down from £6.99 to £5.50. A 30 day ticket is £8.80 and a 14 day ticket is £16.50. And even better, a 90 day advance single business ticket only costs £7.50!
My flight from LHR is on a Sunday in the middle of April and hopefully I'll find out within 30 days if Heathrow Express adds extra early morning trains as they have done in January. I'd rather do that than take Uber to T2.
