How to get from Almaty to Oslo: your flight options
There are no non-stop flights between Almaty and Oslo in the current schedule: the Norwegian capital is reachable from Almaty only via European and Turkish hubs.
The most common option is a connection in Istanbul: the flight from Almaty takes about 5 hours 30 minutes, and Istanbul to Oslo around 4 hours. The alternative is a stop in Warsaw, from where Oslo is a little over an hour and a half away.
The Istanbul routing usually offers more flights and more flexible departure times, while the Warsaw option can be shorter in total travel time.
