Representatives of the airline have been in holding meetings in Kuala Lumpur with the various aviation authorities and organisations, in preparation for the launch.
Incorporated in 2001, the airline operates a fleet of 21 aircraft over more than 50 domestic and international routes. Its 2.3 million passengers are served by a staff of over 2000 highly-trained men and women, the majority of whom are from Kazakhstan , supplemented by experienced foreign personnel. Air Astana recently placed an order for new Airbus 320 family and Boeing 787 aircraft to grow its fleet to 34 aircraft by 2014, and to 63 aircraft by 2022.
