Flight schedule Almaty — Larnaca

Non-stop flights from Almaty to Larnaca are operated by Air Astana — roughly 2 flights a week, about nine departures a month, on an Airbus A321neo with Economy and Business Class. Departures are usually in the morning, arriving in Larnaca late in the local morning. The flight takes about 6 hours 25 minutes.

The service is seasonal: frequency varies from month to month and in some periods there may be no non-stop departures at all. It is therefore easiest to check the current dates, days of the week and departure times in the Freedom Travel search — fares are dynamic and depend on how full each flight is.

How to get from Almaty to Larnaca: travel options

The most convenient option is the Air Astana non-stop: about 6 hours 25 minutes in the air, with no change of plane and no risk of missing a connection.

If there is no non-stop service on your date, the trip can be built with one connection: via Doha with Qatar Airways, or via Dubai, where the leg to Larnaca is flown by Emirates and Cyprus Airways. That takes longer but opens up far more dates to choose from.

Compare the non-stop and connecting options by total travel time, layover length and price: in high season the non-stop is often both faster and no more expensive.

Please note: if you fly with a connection, check in advance whether you need a transit visa in the country where you change planes.
