Successful negotiations between the aviation authorities of Uzbekistan and South Korea took place in Seoul, resulting in an agreement to increase the number of regular flights between the two countries. According to the agreement, the number of flights will rise from 10 to 24 per week for airlines on each side, totaling 48 flights per week between Uzbekistan and South Korea.

The key points of the agreement include:

• Up to 12 flights per week between Tashkent and Seoul, operated by designated airlines from both countries.
• Up to 4 flights per week from other cities in Korea to Tashkent.
• Up to 4 regular flights per week from Uzbekistan’s regions to Seoul.
• Up to 4 flights per week between other cities in Uzbekistan and Korea, aside from the capitals.

Additionally, an agreement was reached to implement an «open skies» regime at the international airports of Cheju (South Korea) and Samarkand (Uzbekistan). This will create additional opportunities for airlines from both countries and expand travel options for passengers.

These agreements will positively impact the development of trade and economic relations between Uzbekistan and South Korea, increase the volume of passenger and cargo transportation, and attract more Korean tourists to Uzbekistan’s historical cities such as Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva.

Thus, aviation cooperation between the two countries will be an important step towards strengthening economic and cultural ties, ensuring closer interaction, and boosting tourism flows.
