You should try www.ryanair.de or www.airberlin.de to see if they fly to a location near you. There are a couple of other cheap airlines out there and all of them are recommendable. I flew RyanAir before (a couple of times) and really liked it.
If you donÂ´t have a cheap airline that operates close to you try the train. Or maybe there is a website for people who share rides in your area? Have you posted somewhere on your school or campus? Maybe someone else is going there at the same time and wants to split the cost for gas :-D
Hope you get there cheap and have a good time!

I grew up in Germany and I used to travel all the time. I would drive everywhere but I had my own car. Too expensive to rent a car, plus you don't really know where you're going. My best advice would be to take the train. Huge mode of transportation in Europe. Public transportion is great there. If you want to get there fast you can take the express Bahn (train). It's great and very fast. Good luck. Berlins gorgeous, you'll have a great time.

www.bahn.de is the website you want for checking the train schedule. Click on 'International Guests' if your English is better than your German.

It's about 8 hrs from Lund to Berlin with one or two stops and with overnights available. Overnight on the train can be a good way to save money - the overnight changes in Copenhagen and then direct to Berlin.

A big advantage of the train over flying is that you are in the city when you arrive. If you fly, you'll need to get your luggage and find transportation into Berlin.

Another advantage of the train is time spent before the flight. You don't need to arrive at the train station an hour or two in advance, as you would at the airport.

Drive, it'll be fun.

I have made that trip several times, if you don't have a lot of time fly, but I took the train, it goes right on the ferry and then off the ferry and on your way again, a really nice trip! Good Luck! From Lund you'll have to go to Malmo if you fly, or go to Danmark better idea and fly from there!

The cheapest way is to hitchhike, but you better plan on taking a few weeks travel time if you want to do that. The best way is to fly. Trains are usually delayed and you'll have to pay attention so you don't fall asleep and miss the station where you need to get on a connecting train or you'll be hopelessly lost. http://www.kayak.com lists flights for 68$ from Malmo to Berlin on October 15 (search on a few days before/after for possible better prices).
