Navoi (airport)

Navoi Airport was opened in 1962 during the Soviet Union . In 1992, by decree of the President of Uzbekistan, along with the creation of the company Uzbekistan Airways (Uzbek Airlines) , Navoi Airport was given international status. In 2007, work was done to increase the capacity of the airport, a complete reconstruction of the runway and taxiways was made, a modern lighting system was installed, and a new air traffic control tower was built. In 2009, the Korean Air Transport Company took over the management of the airport in accordance with a 10-year development plan and to further accelerate the modernization program. The construction of the largest air cargo terminal in Central Asia, which can handle 100,000 tons of cargo per year using the latest equipment, was completed and put into operation on August 12, 2010. A cargo platform was also built to accommodate 5 Boeing 747-400 aircraft, as well as 4 additional fuel storages that can store up to 5 million liters of aviation fuel in total, which is enough to refuel 25 large ships of the B747-400 type. In August 2008, Korean Airlines made the first cargo flight from Navoi, and due to the increase in frequency, 12 weekly Boeing 747-400F flights to Incheon, Brussels and Milan are now operating.
