Tips for Flying Uzbekistan Airways
- Confirm baggage allowances and fare inclusions at booking on Uzbekistan Airways’ website, as allowances can vary by route and fare class.
- Allow extra connection time when transiting through Tashkent (TAS) because immigration and transfer procedures can be slow at peak periods.
- Check visa and entry requirements well in advance since rules for Uzbekistan and some transit points vary by nationality and may require e‑visas or pre-authorization.
- If you plan to credit flights to a loyalty program, verify the program name and partner eligibility before booking because partner crediting rules differ and may not be obvious on third-party sites.
