Please excuse my ignorance, but what is ANA? Are there any restrictions or limitations on purchasing the Heathrow Express tickets at discount through ANA (£27.52 versus £32)?
I will be travelling SEA-LHR next week, so any advice will be greatly appreciated.

ANA is the Japanese airline ANA. Lots of airlines offer discounted prices on HEX and GEX tickets - try a few random airline names and see (eg gatwickexpress.com/easyjet). It just happens that ANA offers the biggest discount.
The only issue for you is whether to use the ANA code or use the code for a free First Class upgrade instead (HEXA2F).

2. E-tickets are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase. Return journey valid for one month from date of first travel.
However, when purchasing, it asks you to enter a travel date?

I must be missing something. Trying to book now for Nov 19 returning Nov 22.
Adding the return still is 64 GBP, for each way. Does the 50% off apply during the final booking process?

I just checked and it works for me. If you click on the link shown a couple of message above it takes you to a page that you need to input your initial travel direction, date of travel, and number of adults/children. Then you click "Get prices and book" and the next page shows your the discounted rates (16 pounds for economy and 25 pounds for first class). All prices are for round trips only as the deal is only applicable for rounds trips.

So to be extra clear.
According to the site, the offer valid for booking until 11.59pm 12th November 2010. We are arriving on the 11th and leaving on the 15th. Does that mean that as long as we book by the deadline we still get the discount even though our return is after the 12th?
