Weather-related restrictions lifted at Fergana and Urgench airports

Flight restrictions caused by heavy fog have been lifted at two out of three affected airports in Uzbekistan, according to Uzbekistan Airports' press service.

A flight from Saint Petersburg to Urgench (HY-9638), operated by Uzbekistan Airways, was diverted to Bukhara due to poor visibility.

Delays were also reported for flights on the Tashkent–Urgench–Tashkent route (HY-51/52). The rescheduled departure from Tashkent to Urgench is set for 12:00, with the return flight now scheduled for 14:15. As of now, the Urgench Airport is operating normally.

In Fergana, the airport temporarily restricted incoming flights due to unfavorable weather conditions. Silk Avia's Tashkent–Fergana flight (US-401) was postponed to 11:20. The Fergana Airport has since resumed regular operations.

Meanwhile, flight restrictions remain in place at Nukus Airport. Uzbekistan Airways’ Tashkent–Nukus flight (HY-11) has been delayed until 11:30 local time.

The situation is being closely monitored to ensure the safety and convenience of passengers.
