Silk Avia to launch flights between Nukus and Muynak starting April 1

The state company Uzbekistan Helicopters, under the Silk Avia brand, will launch flights on the Nukus — Muynak — Nukus route, as announced by the carrier's press service.

The flights will be operated three times a week — on Mondays, Fridays, and Sundays, starting from April 1. The route will be serviced by the LET L-410 aircraft.

The cost of a one-way ticket starts from 109,000 UZS and a round-trip ticket from 218,000 UZS, as of March 27.

Muynak Airport, which had not been in use for over thirty years, underwent reconstruction during 2021—2022. Shavkat Mirziyoyev reviewed the results of the renovation during his trip to Karakalpakstan on February 23−24, 2022.

At that time, the president suggested establishing air communication along the Tashkent — Muynak — Nukus route. In September of the same year, Uzbekistan Airways announced the launch of a flight to Muynak from the regional center.
