Budget airlines

Can anyone tell me if there are any budget airlines operating out of Doha, say to Dubai, Fujaira, Muscat, Amman? While I am there I will have to do some pieces on various places in the region and will need to travel around a fair bit.

I keep searching on google and getting very expensive flights, any tips? Or is that just the way it is?

Also what about flights to the Maldives or Seychelles? Qatar airways are extortionate, any other recommendations?

Thanks

Jazeera Airways flies out of Kuwait to Amman, Dubai, Bahrain and a few other destinations.

Yup. air arabia is the only budget airline around. Hub is sharjah and any flights transit there. I understand that a daily flight leaves doha for sharjah.

You can book electronic tickets online. Though i was told that they arent allowed to sell tickets in Doha, i saw an agent in Asmakh next to the satellite shops.
