How has the year 2024 been for Uzbekistan Airways JSC?
2024 has been good with a performance notably better than the previous year. We’ve had good revenues and increase in direct passenger bookings. The support from the Embassy of Republic of Uzbekistan in India and the Ministry of Tourism Uzbekistan has played a major role in this achievement.
Have you added any new sectors to your portfolio in the last one year?
2024 has been bright and happening for our India region. We expanded our wings to Mumbai and North Goa, in addition to daily flights ex New Delhi
Are you looking at any new target markets to increase your frequency to or add a new service?
Starting April, we will upgrade to 3 flights from Mumbai (currently twice a week). Sales are already open on all OTA’s and local GDS/CRS. Target markets include MICE, corporates, medical student groups, medical patients coming from Uzbekistan and beyond to India for treatment.
How important is the India market for Uzbekistan Airways JSC?
India is important as we’re operating flights since 1992, the same year the country of Uzbekistan came into existence. HY stays committed to fostering growth and catering to the increasing travel demand between both countries.
What are the strategies being implemented to increase your outreach in the India market?
Lately, we have reached everyone’s mobile phones and laptops owing to the existing established framework of tie up between ‘ARYA ENTERPRISES’ as BSP Consolidator and all Indian Online OTA’s. Uzbekistan Airways JSC revenues from India have surged owing to the partnership with both ‘AERO WORLD TRAVELS’ and ‘ARYA ENTERPRISES’ as we’re all committed to ensure strong growth of the carrier. Our partnership dates back over 32 years and is witness of the dedication & commitment amongst all stakeholders and paves the way for further expansion in times ahead.
