Air Astana reduces frequency of flights to Istanbul 

Air Astana has announced that it will reduce the number of flights it operates to Istanbul from the Kazakhstan cities of Almaty, Nur-Sultan and Atyrau, in response to government guidelines. From next week, Air Astana will serve Istanbul four times weekly on Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from Almaty. Air Astana will fly twice-weekly on Mondays and Thursdays from Nur-Sultan, and operate one flight a week on Fridays, from Atyrau. All Air Astana passengers affected by this change in schedule will be able to rebook to travel on alternative future dates, free of charge, or request a full refund.
