Low cost Airlines in Europe
North England's own budget airline, Jet 2 plans to expand its route network in 2009, flying to many more sunshine destinations - including Cornwall, Croatia and Cyprus.
In fact, next year, Jet 2 will fly more low cost routes to the Mediterranean, Adriatic & Dalmatia than ever before - not only from the North of England, but also from Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Low cost Airlines in Europe
You wait years for an LCC, then 4 come along at once. This autumn, Wizz Air, germanwings, Germania & Air Arabia all start flying to Ukraine.
The former Soviet Republic has long only been accessible via flag carriers such as British Airways and Austrian Airlines. At last, no-frills carriers will make transit to cities such as Kyiv and L'viv affordable.

Low cost Airlines in the Middle East
Air Asia will fly beyond the borders of Southeast Asia with new routes to both India and Bangladesh.
Attempts by other cheap Asian airlines such as Mihin Lanka, Nok Air & Fly Yeti to operate low cost flights across the Bay of Bengal, linking South Asia with Southeast Asia have so far all failed. Only the Indian LCC AI Express currently links Thailand & Singapore to India & Bangladesh.

Low cost Airlines in Asia
Sri Lanka's only low fare airline, grounded for most of 2008, expects to take to the skies again in December.
Mihin Lanka is uniquely placed to offer inter-regional low cost routes linking the Persian Gulf to Southeast Asia. But the revived carrier will now face increased competition from aggressively expanding low cost rivals AI Express and Air Asia.

Low cost Airlines in Europe
The largest, best established budget carrier in the Middle East, Air Arabia has set its sights on Europe.
The low fare airline will commence flights to Ukraine on October 15th, 2008, and plans to establish a new base in the Moroccan capital Rabat from which it will fly to many Mediterranean destinations in both North Africa and Europe.

Low cost Airlines in Asia
India's pioneering no-frills airline Air Deccan has been swallowed up whole by Vijay Mallya's Kingfisher. The phoenix rising from Deccan's ashes is Kingfisher Red.
Crucially, this means that what was once the cheapest air network in India has now been superceded by leaner, meaner competitors such as spiceJet, IndiGo and also GoAir, based out of Goa. And in India, of course, there's always the train...

Low Cost Buses & Trains in the UK
In March 2007, Stelios Haji-Ionannou's easyBus launched its first new route in three years, from central London to Stansted Airport.
Meanwhile other budget intercity operators such as Terravision, megabus, megatrain and NX Funfare continue to expand their networks. A greener alternative to flying?
