Let's not forget the high risk of cancer from the solar radiations. Also an almost one-year travel can't be done in a ship that's like a crowded airplane. We'd go crazy without some more space and intimacy (and work to do).
Not that it's impossible but escaping the Earth's gravity cheaply isn't the only challenge.
