State-owned Asman Airlines, together with tour operator Malva Tour (Uzbekistan), will launch a new seasonal direct route Tashkent — Tamchy (Issyk-Kul International Airport) from July 8. Flights will be operated once a week on Wednesdays.
According to Airports of Kyrgyzstan OJSC, the new flight is designed to simplify travel between Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan and make Issyk-Kul more accessible for foreign tourists.
The advantages of this route include a direct, nonstop flight—travel time is approximately 1 hour 20 minutes— as well as ready-made tour packages from Malva Tour, including accommodation, entertainment, and excursions along the shores of Issyk-Kul Lake.
The route is aimed at tourists from Uzbekistan who enjoy outdoor recreation, mountain air, and the warm waters of Issyk-Kul.
Organizers note that passengers can book their trip entirely online, without having to visit a ticket office or call. Tickets are available through their official partner, tour operator Malva Tour (+998702250333, sales department). Special rates apply for early booking.
