About ANA Wings

It appears there may be a slight misunderstanding regarding the provided ICAO code. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) assigns three-letter codes to airlines and four-letter codes to airports. The code "AKX" is recognized as the IATA code for Aktobe International Airport (ICAO: UATT) in Kazakhstan. However, a search for "AKX ICAO airline" most closely points to Air Kokshetau, whose actual ICAO airline code was KRT and IATA code was 0K. This response will provide comprehensive information about Air Kokshetau.

Air Kokshetau was a regional airline based in Kokshetau, Akmola Region, Kazakhstan. It was founded in 1968 as the Kokchetavsky Squadron, and later commenced operations under the name Air Kokshetau in 2002. The airline's primary operational base and main hub was Kokshetau International Airport (KOV).

During its operational period, Air Kokshetau managed a fleet of eight aircraft. This fleet included Soviet-era aircraft such as Yakovlev Yak-40s and Ilyushin Il-62Ms. In October 2004, the airline expanded its fleet by acquiring an Airbus A310-300, which had previously been operated by Air Kazakhstan. The airline operated both domestic and international flights. Its scheduled domestic routes from Kokshetau included destinations like Almaty, Astana, and Petropavl, primarily utilizing its Yak-40 aircraft. Flights were also offered from Astana to Oral. An Ilyushin Il-62M of Air Kokshetau was noted at Pulau Langkawi International Airport in 2007, indicating some international reach. There is no information to suggest Air Kokshetau was a member of any major airline alliances such as Star Alliance, SkyTeam, or Oneworld. Details on specific cabin classes or notable in-flight services offered by Air Kokshetau are not readily available; however, the Ilyushin Il-62 aircraft could be configured to carry up to 198 passengers in a single-class layout or 100 first-class passengers on longer routes. The airline ceased its operations between 2008 and 2010.

Traveler Reviews

Since Air Kokshetau ceased all flight operations between 2008 and 2010, recent traveler reviews and experiences are not available. Information regarding traveler sentiment or specific passenger feedback from its operational period is also not readily accessible through current verifiable sources.

Safety Information

As Air Kokshetau is a defunct airline, "recent" safety information is not applicable. Historical data indicates that Air Kokshetau was included in the European Union's black list, which prohibited the airline from operating within EU airspace. This inclusion typically signifies significant safety concerns regarding an airline's operations or regulatory oversight.

While specific details about individual incidents involving Air Kokshetau are not extensively documented in available records, its presence on the EU black list suggests that the airline's regulatory compliance and maintenance standards were likely deemed inadequate by international aviation authorities. The airline operated a fleet primarily consisting of Soviet-era aircraft, including the Yakovlev Yak-40 and Ilyushin Il-62M, with an Airbus A310-300 also later joining its fleet. The inclusion of other Kazakh airlines on the EU black list due to poor maintenance standards during that period may imply similar issues for Air Kokshetau. Based on this available data, the overall safety assessment for Air Kokshetau during its operational years was likely poor. There is no information indicating that Air Kokshetau received any safety awards or recognitions.
