The Government plans to extend its financial support to the new flights seeking to speed up development of air services and expansion of air flight coverage in Kazakhstan.

Two pilot flights – from Karaganda to Ust-Kamenogorsk and from Karaganda to Kyzylorda – are scheduled for November 20, 2007. Previously the flights were scheduled for January 2008.

In the meantime Kazakhstan’s Transport Ministry will outline a number of steps in order to improve regional air transportation. In July new local flights were launched in the East-Kazakhstan region linking Semey and Ust-Kamenogorsk with five other regional destinations.
