FlyArystan
FlyArystan is a low-cost airline headquartered in Almaty, Kazakhstan. It is the country's first low-cost carrier. The company slogan is Say YES! to Travel. It is the wholly owned low-cost subsidiary of Air Astana. The airline commenced operations in May 2019 and operates a comprehensive network of low fare flights on a modern fleet of Airbus A320 family aircraft. Its route network includes both domestic flights as well as international routes. In 2024, FlyArystan received its air operator certificate (AOC) from the Aviation Administration of Kazakhstan (AAK), confirming compliance with Kazakh aviation legislation and international operational standards. This enables FlyArystan to obtain its own IATA code to expand its presence in foreign markets and cooperate with other airlines. FlyArystan is a 100% subsidiary of Air Astana JSC.
