How to get from Aktau to Milan: your flight options
There are no non-stop flights between Aktau and Milan.
The shortest option is a connection in Baku: Azerbaijan Airlines and FlyArystan fly to Baku, and Azerbaijan Airlines operates Baku — Milan Malpensa. The alternative is a connection in Istanbul: Pegasus flies from Aktau to Sabiha and on to Bergamo, from where shuttle buses run to central Milan. During the Aktau — Dubai season a routing via Dubai with an onward Emirates flight also works.
The Baku routing is usually faster and takes you straight to Malpensa, Istanbul is often cheaper but adds the transfer from Bergamo, and Dubai suits travellers who value comfort on the long leg. This is an international journey, so check whether a transit visa is required where you connect and leave enough time between flights.
