How to get from Karaganda to London: your flight options

There is no direct flight on this route, so every itinerary involves a connection.

The most logical option is a connection in Almaty: FlyArystan takes you there from Karaganda and Air Astana flies on to Heathrow. Alternatively you can build a two-stop itinerary via Istanbul or Dubai — Turkish Airlines, Air Astana and flydubai serve those hubs from Almaty, and both have frequent flights to London. Some travellers reach Almaty or Astana overland and depart from there.

A single change in Almaty normally means the shortest travel time, while routings via European and Middle Eastern hubs offer more dates and sometimes a lower price. Because the itinerary passes through third countries, check in advance whether you need a transit visa.
