i am looking for the names of some budget european airlines.
ones that operate in western europe ... especially in the italy/germany
area.

There isn't a lot of inter European air.

It's relatively compact, so train service is the budget method of transport.

Get yourself a EuroRail pass.

Hi!

IMHO the best German "budget airline" is Air Berlin
(www.airberlin.com). They actually manage to combine low fares, full
complimentary service onboard (even on a 25-minute flight) and a very
modern fleet.

Other budget airlines e.g. include:

Germanwings (www.germanwings.com)
Hapag-Lloyd Express (www.hlx.com)
Ryanair (www.ryanair.com)
easyJet (www.easyjet.com)

A couple major European discount airlines are Ryanair (www.ryanair.com) and
Easyjet (www.easyjet.com). Keep in mind that these airlines make Greyhound
seem luxurious. For example, they charge for checked luggage (regardless of
the number of bags), the seats may not recline (there may not even be seat
pockets!), and the windows may not have shades. However, their airfares are
extremely low, in some cases for $1.60 plus taxes and fees one-way.
