Kazakhstan's Air Astana has announced a codeshare agreement with Etihad Airways, effective November 26, 2024. This partnership aims to enhance travel options and convenience for passengers by offering single bookings, simplified check-in processes, and seamless baggage transfer between the two airlines. It marks Air Astana's eighth such agreement globally.

Zhanna Shayakhmetova, Air Astana Vice President of Marketing and Sales, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration. She stated, "This collaboration reflects our commitment to providing passengers with exceptional and comfortable travel options whilst maintaining the highest standards of service and safety. We look forward to welcoming passengers onboard following this partnership."

Through this agreement, Air Astana passengers will gain access to Etihad flights connecting to destinations like Mumbai, Riyadh, Dammam, Bahrain, Cairo, Doha, Kuwait City, and Muscat. These connections will be facilitated through Abu Dhabi using Air Astana’s nonstop flights from Astana and starting December 5, 2024, also from Almaty.
