Cheap Flights from Edinburgh to Almaty — $147

Edinburgh Airport (EDI) is Scotland’s primary international gateway, serving a mix of legacy and low-cost carriers and typically offering a broad range of European and intercontinental connections. Located about 12 km (7–8 miles) west of the city centre, it can usually be reached in 25–35 minutes by tram, bus or taxi; tram fares are generally comparable to bus fares and taxis can cost noticeably more depending on traffic. Trains are not directly available from the terminal, but a short bus or tram hop links to rail services. Pros: a modern terminal with frequent services and good public-transit links; cons: can be busy during peak seasons and transfers to some parts of the city may take longer than expected.

Almaty International Airport (ALA) is Kazakhstan’s main international gateway and typically functions as the country’s premium hub for long-haul and regional connections, hosting full-service carriers alongside select low-cost airlines. It sits about 15–20 km southeast of the city centre, with travel times usually ranging from 20–45 minutes depending on traffic. Ground options include taxis (metered/private ride apps) and airport shuttles; fares can typically be modest to moderate relative to Western cities, with shuttles often cheaper than private cars. The airport is comfortable and fairly well-equipped for transfers, though peak-hour road congestion can add time; budget travelers may prefer planning extra transfer time.
