The Near Abroad is Becoming Nearer

Starting March 29, 2010 passengers departing from Samara will be offered another direct scheduled flight to Tashkent operated by Ural Airlines. 

The Airline will operate flights on this route every Monday with A-320, departing Samara at 11.50 pm and arriving to Tashkent at 02.40 am the following day. The return flight will leave Tashkent every Tuesday at 04.00 am and arrive in Samara at 07.10 am (all timing is local). 

Thus, the current one flight per week service between Samara and the capital of the Republic of Uzbekistan will soon increase and make a total of two scheduled flights per week (the above route is presently operated by Uzbekiston Havo Yullary, a Uzbek state carrier).  

For more information on the Airline ticket fares on the above route, please visit the Ural Airlines website www.uralairlines.ru, contact the Airport’s Ticket Office or call +7 846 996 51 48 (24 hours). 

Today, Kurumoch Airport offers passengers departing from Samara a number of scheduled flights, operated by leading Russian airlines but also by national carriers from the CIS countries, to the cities of Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Armenia, and Uzbelistan. Also discussed is the opportunity of establishing new air routes between Samara and the cities of the Republic of Kazakhstan. 

With this increase in flight frequency between Samara and the cities of the CIS countries, passengers can now choose a flight at a time most convenient to them, but also different tariffs and onboard services.
