Long weekends in Kazakhstan aree being made possible with an additional flight from London by national carrier Air Astana.
The airline is adding a third weekly flight between Heathrow and the financial and commercial centre of Almaty from January 25.
The Thursday departures from London will be in addition to Tuesday and Saturday flights.
The airline is cutting £100 off the lowest fare on the route to give a £199 introductory return fare on the Thursday flight for travel between January 25 and March 26.
The airline’s regional manager Richard Ledger said: “The new flight provides our passengers with even more choice, including long weekend breaks in Almaty from Thursday through to Tuesday, at a very reasonable price.”
