The agreement covers Uzbekistan Airways flights from Tashkent to cities such as Beijing Dasin, Guangzhou, Urumqi, and Hangzhou. Additionally, passengers will be able to purchase tickets for China Southern Airlines flights from Beijing Dasin, Guangzhou, and Urumqi to Tashkent via Uzbekistan's national carrier.
Umid Husanov, First Deputy Chairman of the Board of Uzbekistan Airways, noted that China remains one of the key markets for the airline. He reported strong demand and stable passenger flow growth since the launch of Tashkent–Guangzhou flights in May of this year, as well as similar trends for the Beijing, Urumqi, and Hangzhou destinations.
According to Husanov, the partnership with China Southern Airlines will strengthen the company's position in the Asian market and provide passengers with greater flexibility and convenience when planning trips.
Zhang Dunsheng, Deputy General Manager of China Southern Airlines Commercial Management Committee, emphasized that the company highly values the Uzbek market. He added that cooperation with Uzbekistan Airways will help strengthen the regional route network, expand the range of services offered, and contribute to the further development of the Belt and Road Initiative.
Uzbekistan Airways has announced plans to develop its hub at Tashkent International Airport by strengthening its presence in the Asian market. The airline believes that combining the networks of two national carriers will promote tourism and strengthen business and cultural ties between Uzbekistan and China.
Ticket sales for codeshare flights will soon begin on the official Uzbekistan Airways website, in the airline's mobile application, at Uzbekistan Airways sales offices, and through the carrier's authorized agents.
