ASTANA, Kazakhstan, October 6. Kazakhstan’s low-cost carrier FlyArystan will begin operating flights between Aktau and Dubai on November 29, 2025, Trend reports via FlyArystan.
At the outset, flights will take to the skies once a week on Saturdays.

"The launch of the Aktau–Dubai route reflects FlyArystan’s strategic focus on expanding affordable routes, including international destinations. Currently, the airline operates flights from Aktau to Kutaisi, Baku, and Istanbul. Dubai remains one of the most sought-after destinations for Kazakh travelers and is a leading center for tourism and business worldwide. We are confident this new route will provide an optimal solution for a wide range of passengers," Richard Ledger, president of FlyArystan, said.
