Air Astana inks strategic partnership with Italy airline Neos
Kazakhstan based Air Astana has signed a MoU with Neos SpA, the second Italian airline and part of the Alpitour group.
Their strategic partnership will encompass several areas of cooperation, including an airline codeshare agreement.
Air Astana will apply a marketing code to Neos-operated flights between Milan Malpensa (MXP) and Almaty (ALA) and vice versa.
Also, there will be a service collaboration on Boeing aircraft from 2025 when Air Astana Group will receive delivery of three Boeing 787-900.
The airlines will share technical and operation insights gained during existing operations by Neos and entrance into service by Air Astana.
The companies will then evaluate the formation of a joint-venture arrangement for routes between Italy and Kazakhstan subject to approvals.
Peter Foster, CEO of Air Astana Group, said: “We look forward to exploring initiatives together so we can better serve our mutual customers.”
“This agreement will provide Air Astana passengers with more flexibility, convenience and choice of flights between Kazakhstan and Italy.”
