Almaty, the former capital of Kazakhstan and the country's largest city, is a cultural gem in the heart of Central Asia. Orbitz.com can help you find cheap flights from Almaty out of Almaty International Airport, the area's small but bustling air transportation hub. The airport is located at Turksib District, Mailin Street 2, approximately 11 miles from the downtown area, and offers direct flights to many popular destinations, including London, Moscow, Amsterdam, Dubai and Bangkok. KLM, Lufthansa, Air Astana, British Midland International and more than 20 other airlines fly out of this airport.
Almaty International Airport offers outdoor and garage parking areas for travelers who want to leave a car at the airport. Parking up to 15 minutes is free. Parking for six hours costs 800 KZT, while parking for a full 24-hour period costs 1,800 KZT. Each additional 24-hour period after the first day costs 2,000 KZT.
If you are traveling during the daytime, it is feasible to take the city bus 492 to Almaty International Airport for a small fee per passenger. Otherwise, your ground transportation options include taxi service and hired car service. It is important when selecting a taxi that you choose a licensed taxi and not a car without a taxi sign. A taxi from the downtown area to the airport should cost approximately $25. Typically, the drive should take 30 minutes, but plan for congestion at the airport. Another option is to arrange for a hired car in advance. Many of the high-end hotels provide shuttle service to the airport free of charge.
Almaty International Airport is a small airport with few amenities. There aren't any restaurants where you can grab a bite to eat before a flight. Your best option is to eat before you get to the airport. Dining options in the downtown area for a quick bite to eat in the morning or a cup of coffee that you can take with you include Coffeedelia, La Grenouille, Madlen, AmBar and Esperanza. Orbitz.com can help you find local sales and low cost dining options in the area, as well as help you book cheap flights from Almaty.
There are two major airports, John F. Kennedy International (JFK) and LaGuardia, that service travelers flying into New York City. When you use Orbitz.com to book your flights to New York, you will be able to choose from almost every major domestic and international air passenger carrier. LaGuardia Airport is roughly nine miles east of Manhattan, while JFK is almost 20 miles to the southeast. If you can't find the flight that you want, you can also fly into Newark International Airport, roughly 19 miles northeast of Manhattan.
New York has plenty of public transportation, so getting around should be fairly easy. If you fly into LaGuardia, you will have to take a taxi, bus, or shared van for at least a portion of the trip, because there is no rail or subway service from the airport. Expect a cab ride from LaGuardia to Manhattan to cost anywhere from $20 to $40. Although JFK is further from the city, you can hop on the AirTrain, which will take you to the subway or the Long Island Railroad. If you choose to take a cab from JFK into Manhattan, expect to pay $45 or more for the ride. You will also be responsible for any tolls that are incurred during the trip. If you use Orbitz.com to book your hotel, you may be able to find one that offers free shuttle service to and from the airport.
New York tends to be cold in the winter, wet in the spring and humid in the summer. Winter temperatures fluctuate between the 20s and 30s, while summer temperatures can soar to the 90s. New York City averages 27 inches of snow each winter, so be sure to pack your parka and snow boots if you plan to be there between November and February. Use the Orbitz.com travel planner to put together your itinerary and choose a temperate time to visit the city.
New York City is an urban adventurer's paradise. From the theaters on Broadway to the lights in Times Square, there is are activities for all ages. Go skating in Central Park, take a horse-and-buggy ride around Central Park South or go shopping on Fifth Avenue. Although New York is home to some of the finest restaurants on the east coast, don't forget to try the rich variety of street foods that are available. Enjoy your time in the city, and remember to use Orbitz.com the next time you are looking for budget flights to New York.
