How to get from Karaganda to Abu Dhabi: your flight options

There is no direct flight from Karaganda to Abu Dhabi: Sary-Arka Airport serves only a handful of non-stop destinations and Abu Dhabi is not one of them.

The standard option is to fly to Almaty with FlyArystan and connect onto the Air Arabia Abu Dhabi service. An alternative is to reach Astana overland (the cities are about 200 km apart and there is no air link between Karaganda and Astana), fly to Dubai with flydubai and continue to Abu Dhabi by road.

Routing via Almaty is simpler thanks to a single booking and arrival straight into the city you need, while going via Astana and Dubai offers more flights but requires two road transfers. As this is an international itinerary with a connection, check in advance whether a transit visa is needed in the connecting country.
