en.Wedoany.com Reported - Almaty plans to add four new international flight destinations in 2026, further expanding its international route network.

Scheduled regular flights to Warsaw are planned to commence in May, followed by a summer seasonal flight to Cyprus in June. Additionally, a new direct flight to Tokyo is expected to be launched this year, and a route to Shenzhen, China is also planned.
