Air Astana signs up with Turkish Airlines
Air Astana and Turkish Airlines have completed the first step towards a wide-ranging co-operation, including a codeshare agreement on routes operated by both carriers between Kazakhstan and Turkey.
Codesharing on flights between Istanbul-Almaty and Istanbul-Astana will also include a special prorate agreement to destinations beyond their respective hubs in Almaty, Astana and Istanbul.
The agreements are intended to take effect as of May 2013.
"The strength of the extensive and rapidly growing network of Turkish Airlines from its hub at Istanbul Ataturk Airport will allow us to offer a much wider range of destinations to our customers," said Peter Foster, president of Air Astana.
"Our passengers will enjoy the codeshare services of the two airlines respectively rated Best Airline of Europe and Best Airline Central Asia and India by Skytrax."
