BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 17. Azerbaijan
Airlines, part of AZCON Holding, has launched its first flight to
Aktobe, Kazakhstan, bringing the number of cities it serves in the
country to six.
According to the press service of Azerbaijan Airlines, regular
flights on the Baku–Aktobe–Baku route operate three times a week,
on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The direct service supports
business and tourism links between Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan,
making travel between the two countries more convenient.
Located in western Kazakhstan, Aktobe is one of the country’s
major industrial and economic centres. The surrounding region
combines a rich cultural and historical heritage with distinctive
natural landscapes. Attractions include the Aktolagay chalk
mountains, the Barkhan sands, the Kargaly Reservoir, and numerous
historic and sacred sites. The destination offers opportunities for
both business travellers and visitors looking to explore the
culture, history and nature of western Kazakhstan.
Following the launch of services to Shymkent and Atyrau earlier
this year, Aktobe marks another step in Azerbaijan’s national
carrier’s expansion across Central Asia. The new route also enables
passengers from Kazakhstan to connect via Baku to other
international destinations in the airline’s network.
Tickets are available through Azerbaijan Airlines’ official website and
mobile app, as well
as the airline’s sales offices and accredited travel agencies.
