I just realized that LY has a SIN-BKK in extension to its flights back to Switzerland. I also know that UA has something like LAX-NRT-HKG. Do any other Airlines operate routes similar to this?

Oh theres a lot. off the top of my head i can think of a few:
Turkish, SAS, and a few others (can't think off the top of my head) do SIN-BKK routes (theres quite a few that fly this). UA does SIN-HKG (off and on from what i remember, think its back up again), and UA and NW have a TON of flights out of NRT to other asian destinations.
LH does a Jakarta-Singapore flight and also goes to Manila (from Bangkok I think).
AF used to do BKK-Saigon, and Hanoi flights but I believe they have gone to non-stops on a thrice weekly service from CDG.
Gulf Air, flies SIN-SYD
Kuwait Airways (and im not too sure about this) has one in southeast asia (maybe Jakarta-KUL or Jakarta-SIN) as well.

I agree - it is quite amazing the number of Non asian airlines that fly intra asia...
My list...
LX BKK-SIN
LH SIN-CGK
LH BKK-AB) (MNL / RPLL), Philippines">MNL
LH BKK-SGN
LH BKK-KUL
EK BKK-HKG
SK BKK-SIN
AY BKK-SIN
ET BKK-HKG
KQ BKK-HKG
Here in BKK, LX, SK & AY fight it out to sell the BKK-SIN seats off the cheapest. On a good day, you can book a return BKK-SIN trip for around 4,500 baht (US$112) earn miles, and still get a meal!!

United operates HKG and NRT as our Asian Hubs. We have flight attendant bases at both. Check out United's website for system maps of all our Asian Destinations.

The debate continues... Starwood or Hyatt... which is better

And QF I think has many routes intra-asia
I don't think QF has any intra-asia routes, not anymore anyway. If I recall correctly, they used to operate SIN-BKK, SIN-HKG & BKK-HKG many years ago. AO however has flights between Singapore-Kota Kinabalu and Singapore-Denpasar.

KL does Taipei-Bangkok. Swiss used to fly the same route.
UA TPE-NRT. NW TPE-NRT, TPE-KIX, etc.
but UA and NW probably have the most intra Asia flight by a Western carrier.
