Low-cost carrier FlyArystan served as the official airline partner of the Turkistan Marathon, which took place today in Kazakhstan’s spiritual capital. To mark the event, the airline traditionally offered marathon participants a 30% discount on air tickets using a special promo code, DKNews.kz reports.
Throughout 2025, FlyArystan was the official partner of the country’s largest running project – the Almaty Marathon. Through this exclusive collaboration, the airline helped connect regions across Kazakhstan and inspired thousands of running enthusiasts by offering special fares for travel to the Almaty Half Marathon, Astana Half Marathon, Almaty Marathon, and Turkistan Marathon.
Richard Ledger, President of FlyArystan JSC:
“We see initiatives like the Turkistan Marathon as a reflection of our mission – to make travel accessible and to inspire people to explore new horizons. Our partnership with the Courage to Be the First foundation demonstrates our commitment to promoting an active lifestyle and domestic tourism, as well as our appreciation for everyone who shares these values with us. We are especially proud that members of the FlyArystan running community took part in the race, sharing the spirit of sportsmanship alongside participants from all over the country.”
Athletes from Almaty, Astana, and other cities were able to comfortably travel to Turkistan to take part in the final marathon of the season. The event brought together 3,000 runners from more than 20 countries. As part of the celebration, FlyArystan also presented a brand zone, where visitors could join interactive activities and win branded prizes.
