Air Astana boosts international flight frequencies for Nauryz holidays

Thursday, 19 Mar, 2026 0

Air Astana is adding extra services from Almaty to multiple destinations to meet travel demand for the Nauryz holiday period in March.

Nine extra frequencies have been added on the Almaty to Phuket route, whilst services to Phu Quoc in Vietnam have been upgraded from single aisle Airbus aircraft to widebody Boeing 767s.

This results in a 35% increase in seat capacity

“To mark the Nauryz celebrations, we are increasing flight frequencies to both regional and long-haul destinations, giving more passengers the opportunity to travel, visit family and friends, or spend the holiday abroad,” said Ibrahim Canliel, Air Astana’s CFO and CEO-elect.

Frequencies have also been increased on other popular routes.

Thirteen flights were added on the Almaty–Delhi service, while frequencies to London, Male, Istanbul, Tbilisi, and Tashkent have also been boosted.

This flight schedule increase will continue in April.

The Astana-Frankfurt route will gradually increase from four weekly flights to a daily service by the end of the month.

Additional frequencies will also be introduced on the Almaty to Phuket and Almaty to Bangkok routes.
