Lectures but u have this very cheap flight...

You probably have had the situation before, where you have finally the money to travel but no time because your lecture clashes with a cheap travel opportunity.

Don't worry there is always a solution and a way.:)

Try and book a flight/train/coach ticket for the night times OR early mornings. Those times are always cheaper and you could safe time by traveling during the night/early mornings without missing any lectures.

From Brighton http://www.nationalexpress.co.uk/. offers a great service. Nonstop to Stansted airport for example (1am leave). It gets you to London Stansted on time for the early flights.

Another cheap bus company is http://www.megabus.co.uk/
If you book tickets in advance you even can get prices like £2 oneway.

If you want to book a train go and  check http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/ BUT don't book through them. Look up which traincompany you want to use (e.g. Southern Railway ) and go directly to their company page. You will see that they have even cheaper tickets!

Extra info about train travel
If you find out that you are a frequent train user buy and get your 16-25 Railcard. This gives you the chance to save 1/3 of the usual travel fee. I got one myself and I renewed the railcard 3 times (valid always for a year). It makes sense to get it if you are a frequent traveler. Even a short journey from Brighton to London makes it worth it.

So as you can see it is all manageable.
Right now I am  on the bus myself and I even had time to meet up with friends beforehand for a couple of "after-uni-group-work-drinks".

Try it yourself!
