Open skies regime now active in 15 airports of Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan has expanded its open skies regime to now include 15 airports, with the city of Oral newly added to the list. Oral’s airport has been granted the fifth freedom of the air, according to a document signed by the Kazakh Minister of Transport. This regime allows foreign airlines to operate flights through Kazakh cities to third countries without flight restrictions. The ministry noted that this initiative aims to attract new foreign carriers, open international routes, and boost tourism. The expansion aligns with President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s directive to broaden flight networks and increase the frequency of international flights.
