If it's just one student, you're probably OK. If it's a large group, make sure it's the latest possible flight out--you never know when something unexpected (like, you know, winning the Championship) will come up. Or get the earliest possible flight on Sunday (short sleep Saturday night + airplane sleep + resting on Sunday).
