if you can, go to toronto or montreal, it is so much cheaper to fly out of those cities, because there are daily flights that leave toronto for london.
check out www.travelcuts.com for good student rates. travelcuts also posts some special last minute deals and in the past i've seen toronto-london return for $98, albeit with specific dates. but try booking a roundtrip flight, it'll be cheaper than two one-ways.

travelcuts has some good deals for round-trip but the only problem is my one-way ottawa to glasgow is already booked...so i just need a cheap return from london. hah i read some flyglobespan reviews, customer service appears to be non-existant, and flight delays can last up to 24 hours. however, $300 return one-way london-toronto is the best i can get...and i'm a student so cheap flights trump good service for me. my dates are fairly flexible too so i dont mind flight delays etc...i'll most likely take a chance and book with them this week. Right now they have one-way toronto-london for $150 after taxes...absolutely ridiculous.
looking back it would have 10 times easier/cheaper to book round-trip instead of two one-ways...cost me a litle extra doing it this way, but $650 RT total isn't too shabby.

jetradar.com/?ref=15048 is the only place I go to search flights now, after consistently finding them to find the best deals. They don't 'promote' any particular airline, but are totally transparent, plus they include the extra fees and taxes that you know you have to pay but many other 'comparison' sites leave off. This is helpful, as you can make a fair assessment of which is the best price.
