OREANDA-NEWS.  January 31, 2012.  From January 23, 2012, National Airline “Belavia” will increase the frequency of flights on the route Minsk – Astana – Minsk. Now the flights will be carried out three times a week.
 
For 10 years the flights have been exclusively seasonal and carried out in summer period. From September 2011 the flight Minsk – Astana – Minsk has become year-round and is carried out twice a week. 
 
“Each month the passenger flow on the route Minsk – Astana – Minsk is significantly increased. Therefore, we have made a decision to increase the frequency of flights to meet the passengers’ demand and to develop connection flow via the Minsk National Airport. Increase of flights frequency is also related to the development of Common Free Market Zone”, reported Anatoliy Gusarov, General Director of National Airline “Belavia”.
 
The growth of the amount of flights will contribute to more convenient connections for the passengers’ transportation from Astana airports via Minsk to European cities and back.
