I will be flying between the three countries. I know a lot of flight from EU to this region lands very early in the morning. Some flights between these three places are at odd hours too. I am planning to stay at the Four Seasons Baku, which I should have early check in at, so may be able to use that to my advantage.
Hi,
We just returned home after 20ish days in Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan. We flew AUS-FRA-WAW-(long layover)-EVN outbound and then took ground transportation to Mestia, Kazbegi and Tbilisi. We flew on the Azal flight from TBS-GYD that was at a very reasonable hour and i would recommend Azal. The Azerbaijani immigration staff did ask what cities we visited in Armenia, but then did not give us any shiz once we said Yerevan only. Granted my wife is 6 months pregnant and we were traveling with a 3 year old, so your experience may vary, but i would not expect any issues crossing Georgia->Azerbaijan having visited Armenia first unless you go to Artsakh. We also stayed at the Four seasons in Baku and it was very good.
