    The best memory of this Airline (I fly for times a year with Air Astana) was in January in Nur-Sultan (older Astana) when we had a strong blizzard and no aircrafts could fly. The Airline took us to a 5 stars hotel in the city for 2 days and all was best organized! We hadn't big problems at the airport and shouldn't wait a long time!
    And all this was in economy class!!!

    I have flown Air Astana from/to Frankfurt. As you said, nice planes and a lovely crew. This doesn't surprise me as everyone I encountered on an extended business trip in Kazakhstan a few years ago was exceptionally kind and hospitable, and all service workers were well-trained and professional.

    Thanks for sharing such an unknown airline. It is always nice to discover hidden gems in the airline world. Giving you the opportunity to use the VIP terminal for the night only speaks of how customer oriented they are. Bravo Air Astana! Keep them coming, Josh!

  • @hythesailor
    @hythesailor 2 года назад +38

    Looks really good. European airlines seriously need to "up their game" when it comes to their business class product as it really is crap at the moment. You are basically only paying for lounge access and fast track security. Such a shame that that VIP Terminal will soon be no more. The architecture looks beautiful and it seems really well-kept.

      considering Kazakhstan is sort of a poorer nation and their flag carrier is serving hot meals on 1 hour flights, I agree.

    For such a small airline, Air Astana are miles above many other major international airlines, better, service, amenity kits, catering, safety, crew and comfort.
    In the Skytrax Covid Safety Awards in 2021, they achieved 5 stars, British Airways scored 3.5. They were also voted best airline in Central Asia in 2021.
    Business Class with British Airways domestic or European means an Economy seat of no more then 30 inch seat pitch, same as Ryanair, its a joke.
    Air Astana offer another 7 inches, and we know that 7 inches can make such a difference 😆 Crew are wonderful, enthusiastic and love their job.

    • @jorgevillavicencio427
      @jorgevillavicencio427 2 года назад +2

      @Andrew Flyer you also made me snort my coffee with your accurate observation of the 7 inches. Reminds me of an old joke: what's the difference between an oooh and an aaaah? - 7 inches

    2:28 In 2004 a new terminal was built on the place of a previous main terminal that got destroyed in a large fire. The historic terminal was one of the few parts of the airport that survived that fire in 1999.

    I reckon you should let him know the terminal is closing. So he can " check it out " for Russian mosaics !
