Demand has outrun the air links
Azerbaijan’s popularity with Pakistani travellers has grown quickly, helped by relatively straightforward entry arrangements and a destination that offers mountains, a Caspian coastline and a walkable capital at moderate cost. The flights have lagged behind. Seasonal direct services have operated in some years but nothing has settled into a reliable year round schedule, so most travellers still route through Istanbul or a Gulf hub.
Istanbul is usually the better connection
Baku sits north west of Pakistan, which means an Istanbul routing is closer to the direct line than a Gulf one. Turkish also serves Baku heavily, so the connections are frequent and the total journey is typically shorter than going via Doha or Abu Dhabi. Price the Gulf options anyway, but expect Istanbul to win on this particular destination.
A cheaper alternative to Europe
Part of Baku’s appeal from Pakistan is that it delivers a European feeling city break at considerably less than the cost of actually flying to Europe. Once you land, accommodation and food are inexpensive by regional standards. Judged as a total trip rather than a fare, it compares well against a Turkey holiday and very well against Western Europe.
