How to get from Aktobe to Baku: your flight options

The direct option is the Azerbaijan Airlines non-stop flight from Aktobe to Baku, about 2 hours in the air. It is available only in season, from September to March, and there are few flights, so it is worth booking seats early.

Outside the season and on most dates the journey involves a connection. The most convenient hubs are Almaty (Air Astana, Azerbaijan Airlines), Astana (Azerbaijan Airlines) and Aktau (FlyArystan, Azerbaijan Airlines); Air Astana, FlyArystan, SCAT and Vietjet Qazaqstan fly from Aktobe to these cities.

A non-stop flight saves time but is tied to the season and a sparse schedule. Connecting itineraries give you more freedom with dates and are often cheaper, although you will spend longer on the way.

If your connection is in an airport of a third country, check in advance whether you need a transit visa.
