Good site for local travel besides Agoda or AirAsiaGo?

Any suggestions for sites with good travel package (airfare+hotel) deals for the region? I already use AirAsiaGo and Agoda, looking to see if there is anything else out there with a significantly different variety.

Not interested in something like GroupOn where I can buy into a pre-determined trip with tons of restrictions. I like to pop my dates and destinations into a search engine and see options.

airfares.com.sg, cheaptickets.sg and asiatravel.com

For Asiatravel.com - well, when I compared then with the travel agents pricing of hotel/packages, from 5 star, Chan brothers, Pricebreakers and SPAMMER, all of them were within a few dollars here or there ..

we always use hotels.com.. we have used it so much over the last three years we have actually built up points and have received a free night on some of the places we've booked. :)

I like Agoda - I find the system actually very clever
The rates are guaranteed to be the cheapest (I guess same with all others actually) but you get a point system by booking through them and if you write reviews, you get more points which you can use to offset your future bookings/reservations.

Also, if you pay with a DBS credit card and go on the relevant DBS Rewards/Agoda page, you save an additional 7% I believe !
