Booking notes

• Indian passport holders get 14-day visa-free entry to Kazakhstan. No application needed, just a valid passport with 6+ months validity.
• Almaty (ALA) airport code, not to be confused with Astana (NQZ). Almaty is the largest city, Astana is the capital.
• People travelling from other Indian cities (Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, etc.) should book a flight to Delhi that arrives in time for the morning departure from Delhi.
• Book flights only AFTER you have confirmed your slot with Orange Jacket and received the official booking confirmation email.
• New Year peak: flight prices spike sharply in December. Book 6 to 8 weeks ahead for the best fares.

Weather + clothing note (for the flight)

Almaty in late December sits at minus 5 to minus 10 degrees Celsius. Wear a warm jacket on the flight or have it accessible in your carry-on so you do not freeze the second you step out at ALA.

Group pickup

If you book Air Astana KC908 (the recommended DEL to ALA), the trip leader meets the group at Almaty arrivals and you transfer together to the hotel for check-in plus the welcome dinner. For other routings, send your flight ticket to [email protected] and we will sort your individual pickup.
