Best way to go Jerez to Barcelona

We are travelling for the first time Aug - Oct. We need to get from Jerez de la Frontera to Barcelona and want to do it as cheaply as possible. This will be the final part of an 11 week European trip so will have 23kg bag each and carry on luggage. Any suggestions?

Cheapest is ryanair.com from €38 but you will need to get your luggage under 20kg. So either takes less or wear 3kg of your clothes.

Even with their additional fees it will still be less, and much easier, than the the train or bus.

Last summer we flew from Jerez to BCN on Ryanair without any problems and it was a very cheap flight however the limit is only 20 kg + 8 kg hand luggage so you can organize your luggage accordingly.It's not that hard

sorry for the wrong info
my hubby corrects it as 20 kg + 10 kg hand luggage with the dimensions of 55x40x20 cm
but only one piece is allowed

You can also I believe take an overnight train from nearby Seville to Barcelona - same time and cost of a night in a hotel and if you are traveling for many weeks by train you may have some kind of railpass where the basic train fare would be covered - not the optional sleeping accommodations. For lots of great dope on overnight trains I always say check out these superb IMO sites - www.seat61.com; www.ricksteves.com and www.budgeteuropetravel.com - www.renfe.com is the Spanish Railways official site and you can score some really deep discounted tickets perhaps to make it a real cheap trip.

Thanks senozkadir and sofarsogood for suggestion re ryanair, but I think it is going to be a bit too difficult to get our luggage down to the limit needed and I've been told that ryanair aren't really 'friendly' with excess baggage. As I said, this is the end of our 11 week trip so we'll no doubt be pushing our weight limits anyway.
