Route Chart
Istanbul on the Bosphorus, Almaty at the foot of the Alatau — we sit where East meets West. Hover a city or a route for distance and flight time; switch hubs to compare coverage. Popular routes with the smallest jet that flies them non-stop are listed below the chart.
Kazakhstan's commercial capital sits on the direct line between Europe and China, making Almaty the natural staging point for Central Asia. Slower-moving airport traffic than the Gulf or Europe means faster slot confirmation and less ramp congestion for VIP and cargo movements alike.
Istanbul is the busiest crossroads on our chart — one of the few cities where Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia sit within a single non-stop radius. It is also our HQ base, with the deepest bench of on-call crew, handling agents and MRO relationships in the network.

FAQ
Charter is priced per flight hour by category. Indicative 2026 market ranges: very light jets $2,000–3,500, light jets $3,000–5,500, mid-size $4,500–7,500, super mid-size $6,500–10,000, large jets $8,000–13,000, ultra long range $11,000–20,000 and VIP airliners $16,000–25,000 per hour. Positioning, crew overnights, airport, handling and permit fees are added. Our written quote itemises every fee.
Written quotes arrive within 24 hours, usually sooner. Urgent business jets can be airborne in as little as 4 hours, subject to aircraft availability, crew duty time and the permits on the route. The desk works 24/7/365.
Istanbul–London is 2,522 km (about 3h 32m) and Almaty–Dubai 2,802 km (about 3h 53m) — both within light-jet range; a mid-size jet adds margin for a full cabin and luggage. Almaty–London (5,618 km) needs a large jet to fly non-stop.
ACMI (wet lease) gives you aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance, flown under the lessor's AOC and billed per block hour — capacity can start within days. A dry lease gives you the aircraft only: you supply crew, maintenance and insurance and fly it under your own AOC, usually for 12–60 months.
Dry leases typically run 12 to 60 months. ACMI is more flexible: seasonal contracts usually start at one month with a minimum guaranteed hours (MGH) commitment, and short-term ACMI covers peaks, delayed deliveries or AOG events.
Non-scheduled flights into Kazakhstan need a landing permit and an airport slot. The application lists the AOC, aircraft, pilot in command, lead passenger, routing and handling agent, and the permit covers a 24-hour window around the planned time. Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan apply similar prior-permission rules. Our Almaty desk files them in parallel with the quote; short-notice permits are often possible.
A valid passport and any visas required at the destination. The operator needs each passenger's full name, date of birth, nationality and passport details in advance for the manifest. Children travelling with one parent may need a notarised consent letter.
Yes — most operators accept pets in the cabin with prior approval. The pet must meet the destination's import rules, typically a microchip, rabies vaccination and a health certificate. Some countries, such as the United Kingdom, only accept pets on approved routes, so tell us at booking.
When a jet flies one way it often returns or repositions empty. These empty legs sell at a significant discount to a normal one-way charter, but the route and time are fixed by the original booking and can change with it. Ask the desk to watch empty legs on your route.
From 21-tonne loads on a 737-800BCF to 124 tonnes on a 747-400F, plus A300, A310 and A330 freighters — oversized, urgent and project cargo, full or part charter. Dangerous goods fly under IATA rules with the operator's approval.
No. Istanbul and Almaty are where our desks sit; we charter worldwide and position the aircraft from the nearest suitable base, so the price stays competitive wherever the trip starts.

Glossary
The lessor supplies Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance; the lessee pays per block hour and covers fuel, airport and handling charges.
Industry shorthand for ACMI. A full wet lease also bundles fuel and operating charges into one price.
A wet lease with partial crew — usually the lessor's pilots and the lessee's cabin crew.
The aircraft only. The lessee flies it under its own AOC and covers crew, maintenance and insurance.
A flight that would otherwise fly without passengers, sold at a discount on a fixed route and time.
Flying the aircraft from its base to your departure point — billed in most ad-hoc charter quotes.
Time from off-blocks at departure to on-blocks at arrival — the billing unit for ACMI and most charters.
Minimum guaranteed hours: the block hours per month an ACMI lessee pays for, flown or not.
Payments per hour, cycle or month that fund future heavy checks, engine and landing-gear overhauls.
Air Operator Certificate — the licence that allows a company to operate commercial flights. Every charter needs one.
Prior permission from a state to cross its airspace or land there on a non-scheduled flight.
The private terminal for business aviation, and the ground services — fuel, catering, baggage — that turn the aircraft.
