You can drop off your baggage while check-in is open. It usually closes 40 minutes, and in some foreign airports, 60 minutes before departure. Airports have special counters for passengers who have already checked in online and only want to check their baggage. Or you can use any Air Astana check-in desk.

1. It is necessary to make sure that the data entered on the site is correct.
2. Probably your airport does not have an online check-in option. 
3. You are trying to check in an unaccompanied child or passenger on a stretcher or have paid for an extra seat.

If you were unable to check in online, please do so at the airport check-in desks. Some airports (currently Almaty and Astana airports) have a self-check-in kiosk you can use in the terminal. 

You'll get all boarding passes at once when you fly with Air Astana flights. For some flights, there might be restrictions on the issuance of boarding passes, but check-in itself is available.

You can specify the number of extra baggage spaces you want to buy online. 

No, unaccompanied children must arrive at the airport to check in before departure.
Also, the web check-in is not available for:

• passengers with an extra seat;
• passengers on a stretcher.

For the following passenger categories, check-in is also available online, but boarding passes cannot be printed out and must be collected at the airport:

• passengers with infants and children;
• passengers with youth fare tickets;
• passengers with senior fare tickets;
• passengers who have agreed with the airline's fraud prevention procedures;
• and for all passengers who have a special service request in their bookings.

For some international flights, this feature is still limited.

You can cancel your check-in by re-entering the online check-in service and choosing "Cancel check-in" at airastana.com.

If you are flying from the Republic of Kazakhstan and want to change your departure date, please get in touch with the Air Astana ticket office. If you want to return a ticket purchased on another website or from a travel agency, contact a representative of that agency or website directly.
