Air Astana is adding a new Almaty-Mumbai route this spring as a part of its celebration of 20 years of connecting Kazakhstan and India.
In a press statement, Air Astana says that the new Almaty-Mumbai flights start on 20 April 2025. Mumbai flights will be operated on Airbus family aircraft three times a week on Sundays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
The airline says that since entering the Indian market in 2004, it has steadily expanded its presence and now operates nine weekly flights to Delhi from Almaty, with an increase in frequencies during the summer.
The statement adds that Economy class return fares including taxes start at $406.
“With the Indian economy growing strongly, Air Astana is delighted to launch services to Mumbai, a vibrant metropolis driven by trade, finance and enterprise,” said Peter Foster, CEO at Air Astana.
According to the airline, this new service is expected to significantly enhance connectivity between the two nations, providing seamless travel options for both leisure and business travellers.
With Mumbai serving as a major financial and cultural hub, the expansion is set to strengthen Air Astana’s presence in India, complementing its existing flights between New Delhi and Almaty.
