Air Astana Group, Kazakhstan's largest air carrier, has signed a three-year agreement with Turkish MRO provider Total Technic for line maintenance at Antalya Airport (AYT).

In addition to the parent airline of the same name, the services of the Turkish company will be used by its subsidiary low-cost carrier FlyArystan.

Now only the flagship Air Astana flies to Antalya three times a week from Almaty.

However, in the summer season, flights of both carriers of the group from Aktau, Aktobe, Astana and Uralsk are added to this Turkish resort destination.

Total Technic Ltd. has been operating in the repair services market since 2012, having obtained SHGM (Turkish Civil Aviation Department), EASA and FAA certificates for its repair base at Istanbul Ataturk Airport (ISL). In 2018, a branch office was opened in Antalya and later a line maintenance base was opened at the new Istanbul Airport (IST).
