Operates Twice a Week... Approximately 8 Hours Required
An Uzbek airline has newly commenced service at Incheon International Airport, operating a regular Incheon?Tashkent route.
On the 28th, Incheon Airport announced that Kanotshak Airlines will operate the Incheon?Tashkent regular route twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays) starting from that day. The flight duration is 7 hours and 45 minutes.
Kanotshak Airlines is a new Uzbek national airline operating 5 domestic routes and 10 international routes. This is Kanotshak Airlines' first service to the East Asia region with its inauguration at Incheon Airport. With this new service, the number of airlines operating flights to Tashkent from Incheon Airport has increased to three.
The airport authority explained that this is the result of selecting Central Asia as a strategic route to secure an air network connecting Central Asia and East Asia, along with continuous support for increased traffic rights and local promotional marketing activities.
Lee Hak-jae, President of Incheon International Airport Corporation, said, "Through the completion of the 4th phase construction project scheduled for the end of this year, we will secure airport infrastructure capable of accommodating 106 million international passengers annually." He added, "We will continue to expand region-specific marketing to accelerate the attraction of new airlines and routes, strengthening Incheon Airport's competitiveness as a global hub."
