Early flight from Almaty on Sunday 19th August

[AdamL]

Hi
I have a flight back home from Almaty airport on Saturday 19th of August, at 5:00 am. I will finish my trip through Central Asia in Bishkek on Friday 17th of August. I have to relocate myself from Bishkek to Almaty which I guess is not a big deal (I will have only small backpack with me), I heard that together with border crossing it should take 4-5 hours. I have two options in my mind, please advice if both are doable:

A) relocation from Bishkek to Almaty on Saturday morning 18th of August, stay a night in some hostel near airport, and then use a taxi (?) At 3:00 am to the airport or if hostel will be close enough, go there by foot

B) relocation from Bishkek to Almaty on Saturday evening 18th of August directly to the airport, and stay on the airport for half night till 3:00 am

Using Yandex taxi app a ride to the airport should be 1500 tenge so you can stay wherever you want, not necessary to be near the airport. Personally I would choose option A
