AIR Astana has bumped up the frequency of its Almaty-New Delhi flights, in response to growing demand fuelled by greater trade and financial co-operation between Kazakhstan and India.
Now available once a day except on Thursdays and Saturdays, the three-hour, 45-minute flights will continue to be serviced by Airbus A320 aircraft in a 148-seat, two-class configuration.
“Business and leisure traffic between Kazakhstan and India has continued to grow strongly in recent years, and Air Astana is delighted to respond by providing extra services to Delhi,” said Ibrahim Canliel, vice president of sales & marketing at Air Astana.
Air Astana is offering return economy airfares from Almaty to Delhi starting from US$337 per pax, including taxes, while a business-class return ticket costs at least US$1,308, taxes in.
The Kazakh flag carrier has been running Almaty-Delhi flights since September 4, 2004, and has carried close to 200,00 passengers on the route since.
