There is no direct Usharal — Turkistan flight in the timetable, so a non-stop option is not available on this route.

The main way is a connection in Almaty: a short regional hop to Almaty and an onward flight to Turkistan. Less often the itinerary is built via Astana, though the total travel time is usually longer in that case.

A combined option is also possible: fly to Almaty or Shymkent and continue to Turkistan by train or road. It is cheaper but noticeably slower. Compare the total travel time, the length of the layover and the final price. No transit visa is needed — the whole journey stays within Kazakhstan.
