Best way to get my Daughter from Luton to Belfast Uni

I would consider sending the bulky stuff by carrier. You can send sizeable 25kg boxes for around 10 pounds + VAT with companies like this

Take cheap flights with your daughter carrying light and valuable things and get the heavy stuff sent.

This might help a bit! We sent a couple of packages to our DS at Uni in Leeds (we are in London) and they are quite good, and reasonable. Have to say for the main move in/out, we drove up with a very full car though and stayed overnight. Bit of a pain and all the stuff is all over the place in the house atm - with DS saying 'I can't put it away, I'm still in transit!):)

Thanks both. That's the sort of thing I need to use - ship the stuf then go by air. I'll get some quotes.

If you already live in Luton, maybe 2 people can fly, one returns. Pay Easyjet or whoever for the excess suitcases. It still might work out the same/less cost than taking a car.

The University area is awash with decent hotels and parking is reasonably good, even a lot of on-street.

If you go during term time the parking is not that good. Trying to get a space can take about 20 minutes at times. This is assuming it's Queens.
