FlyArystan, the low-cost subsidiary of Air Astana, has
confirmed plans to launch flights from Turkistan to Istanbul,
Turkey on 21 March 2021.
Regular flights from Turkistan, the spiritual
capital of Kazakhstan, will operate two times per week on Fridays
and Sundays, with departure from Turkistan scheduled for 08:40 and
arrival in Istanbul at 10:35.
The return flight is timed to depart from Istanbul
at 11:20 and arrive in Turkistan 18:25.
One-way fares start from 79 Euros for travellers
from Turkey and 39,999 Tenge for flights departing from
Kazakhstan.
“Kazakhstan and Turkey maintain historically close
ties and I’m confident that direct flight between Istanbul and
Turkistan will make the connection even stronger,” said Renat
Abulkhanov, Head of Network and Revenue for FlyArystan. “The
Turkistan region is full of unique architectural monuments and has
a rich history. The primary attraction of Turkistan is the
mausoleum for Khoja Ahmet Yasavi erected by Amir Timur, which is
of great cultural significance. The Turkistan region also features
the mausoleum to the teacher Yasavi Arystan baba erected by Amir
Timur, as well as the ancient settlements of Otyrar and Sauron.”
FlyArystan was the first airline to fly into the
new Turkistan airport and it currently operates regular services
from Almaty, Nur-Sultan (the capital city formerly known as
Astana) and Atyrau.
