Google estimates FRA Frankfurt am Main to NQZ Nursulatan Nazarbayev, Astana 
takes 6:45 direct, flights are 7:05W/8:10E, so arrival at 09:00 would require 
departure around 23:50/-1, unless there are stops!

One flight leaving at 04:20 arriving 08:50/+1 takes 31:30 with 19:25 stop in 
Dubai, costs 5* as much, emits 6* the CO2, flying ~33% longer, than the cheapest 
and most efficient, which has a 17:55 stop in Warsaw!
