QazaqAir Introduces Service Between Astana, Turkistan, and Samarkand Starting in May
Scooping Up Skies: QazaqAir's Redefining Journey
Get ready, Kazakhstan! QazaqAir, our very own flag carrier, is shaking things up with a fresh route kickoff. Starting May 1, they'll be soaring to Turkistan and Samarkand, thanks to the Kazakh Transport Ministry's go-ahead.
Want to know more about this exhilarating transformation? Here's the juicy deep dive.
Those thrice-weekly flights on Thursdays and Sundays ain't just a small change-up. They'll bump the Kazakhstan-Uzbekistan flights from a measly 42 to 44 per week, opening new horizons for us!
Last year, QazaqAir switched hands from Samruk Kazyna Sovereign Wealth Fund to a consortium of Vietnamese investors, dubbed Central Asia Aviation Holdings Limited, which is an offshoot of the Sovico Group. You can call it a game-changer!
The new bosses got big plans – modernizing the airline, amping up its operational efficiency, and expanding its regional reach. Exciting stuff, right?
Over the coming years, Qazaq Air's fleet will be beefed up with 20 top-of-the-line Boeing 737 MAX 8 or Airbus aircraft. Now, aren't they a sleek bunch?
But wait, there's more!
Vietjet Qazaqstan, possibly the new name on the horizon, could be a collaboration with none other than VietJetAir – another big-name baby of the Sovico Group.
Brace yourselves, Kazakhs, because this isn't just a facelift. Qazaq Air aims to become a strategic air bridge connecting our homeland with Vietnam and Southeast Asia, igniting cross-border tourism, trade, and logistics. Talk about rocketing to the top!
Intrigued by all this? Stay tuned for more updates as we soar into the future together!
QazaqAir's new flights to Turkistan and Samarkand, starting May 1, indicate an expansion of their regional reach, aligning with their new owners, Central Asia Aviation Holdings Limited, from the Sovico Group's ambitious plans to modernize and increase operational efficiency. This transformation is not just a facelift but a strategic initiative to establish QazaqAir as an air bridge connecting Kazakhstan with Vietnam and Southeast Asia, fostering cross-border tourism, trade, and logistics.
