FlyArystan gains air operator certificate
FlyArystan, Air Astana Group’s low-cost carrier brand, has been awarded its own Air Operator Certificate from the Aviation Administration of Kazakhstan (AAK).
The AOC was officially issued on 1 April 2024 following an extensive audit by the AAK.
It demonstrates FlyArystan’s adherence to both domestic aviation legislation and international operational standards.
Since launch in 2019, FlyArystan has operated under the Air Astana Air Operator Certificate.
Under its own AOC, FlyArystan will now be able to align operations more effectively with its low-cost carrier model.
FlyArystan remains a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Air Astana Group.
Peter Foster, CEO of Air Astana Group, said: “Since its launch, FlyArystan has grown into the market leader in Kazakhstan.”
“This makes it the right time for FlyArystan to obtain its own operator certificate, reflecting the increased size and operational complexity of the airline.”
Operationally, its own AOC will give it greater efficiency and recognition among aviation authorities globally.
It also enables FlyArystan to receive its own IATA code.
