FLIGHTS TO KAZAKHSTAN WILL BE RESUMED ON AUGUST 17

The Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development of Kazakhstan announced the resumption of international flights from 17 August. Russia is included in the list of countries.

However, the consent of the Russian side should be obtained first. The list of Kazakhstan also includes Ukraine, Belarus, Egypt, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Arab Emirates. The decision was made by the authorities of Kazakhstan in accordance with the coronavirus epidemiological situation.

At the same time, it is noted that all the agreements are preliminary.

It is reported that when the flights to Kazakhstan are resumed, the measurement of the body temperature, mask mode, test for coronavirus and social distance will become mandatory. The number of flights has not been specified yet, as everything will depend on the commercial load of the liners.

We should recall that Kazakhstan closed the border with Russia on March 16 in order to prevent the spread of infection.
