The agreement will cover several areas of cooperation, including:
– Codeshare flights under which Air Astana will apply a marketing code to flights operated by Neos between Milan Malpensa (MXP) and Almaty (ALA) and vice versa.

– Collaboration in servicing Boeing aircraft starting in 2025, when Air Astana Group will receive three Boeing 787-900s. Where permitted, the two companies will share technical and operational know-how acquired during existing Neos operations and the entry into service of Air Astana.
– The two companies will also consider and evaluate the formation of a joint venture on the routes between Italy and Kazakhstan, when permitted by regulatory, antitrust and government authorities.
“We are delighted to enter into a strategic partnership with Neos and look forward to exploring initiatives together to better serve our mutual customers,” said Peter Foster, CEO of Air Astana Group. “This agreement will provide Air Astana passengers with more flexibility, convenience and choice of flights between Kazakhstan and Italy. The first interline agreement was signed by Air Astana in 2005 and since then, the Group has been strengthening ties with other international airlines in Asia and Europe as we strive to offer our customers even more options to travel the world.”
