Like most UK rail, it’s anywhere between somewhat expensive and _outrageously_ expensive, depending on exactly when you buy the ticket and how. Looks like it cost me 9.50 last time I was there, which is not _horrific_ for an airport (airport transport generally being a bit of a ripoff), but the barely-faster Gatwick Express would have been far more.

(The UK rail system is a uniquely user-hostile one, in that it seems designed to fool you into paying more than you have to.)
