Book Flights with Low Cost Airlines Singapore
Cheap Flights from Singapore: A Guide That Finally Gets the Geography Right
I want to clear up something before we go any further, because it undermines a guide like this one if nobody says it out loud. Singapore is a city-state with one airport. There is no such thing as a domestic flight to Singapore, or within it, because there is nowhere else in the country to land. What you actually want, and what this guide is now correctly about, is cheap regional flights out of Changi, the short hops that make Singapore such a good home base for a Southeast Asian trip.

One name you will not find on this list anymore, and it's worth saying plainly: Jetstar Asia closed permanently on the 31st of July, 2025, after two decades of flying, done in by rising supplier costs, steep airport fees, and regional competition it couldn't keep pace with. Sixteen routes disappeared with it, including some of the most commonly booked out of Singapore. Scoot and AirAsia have picked up most of the slack, so if an old bookmark or fare alert still mentions Jetstar Asia, it's safe to let that memory go.
