Air Asia: Air Asia is Malaysia's discount domestic carrier. If you book well in advance you can get some absolutely rock bottom fares. Air Asia also has country operations in Thailand and Indonesia.
Jet Star Asia: One of Singapore's own home grown budget carriers. We've actually found flying with Jet Star to be a rather pleasant experience.
Valuair: Valuair merged with Jet Star in early 2005 but still operates under a separate name. You can book through flights on either airline. Valuair flies mainly to destinations in Indonesia, including Bali, as well as Hong Kong and Manila.
