Kazakhstan 50-Aircraft eVTOL Order and Business Jet Actual Flow Form Sharp Contrast: Almaty Movements YoY −20%
●Alatau Advance Air●AutoFlight Prosperity
Analysis
Alatau Advance Air Group on May 21, 2026 signed 50-aircraft AutoFlight Prosperity eVTOL purchase agreement; previously signed $250M LOI with Joby — these two eVTOL orders far exceed Kazakhstan's existing business jet market scale. But AviGo data shows January–May 24, 2026 Almaty UAAA business jet movements 941, YoY −20.1% (vs. 2025's 1,178); Astana UACC essentially flat (841 vs. 838, +0.4%). Kazakhstan business jet existing fleet may be just tens of aircraft scale; nation highly concentrated at two major hubs. eVTOL orders more reflect forward-looking bets than current mature demand; investors and operators should carefully assess Central Asia AAM market implementation timeline. Confidence ★★★ (KG order events + AviGo flow data dual cross-verification).
