    (opened 2011). Arrival-hall phase 1 opened June 2025 (Kutish zali / Waiting

    — do not treat it as live. The 2030 new Tashkent Region airport is not live.

bentoTips:
  - label: Timing
    title: Uzbekistan Airways international desks at TAS die at 60 minutes
    detail: >-
      Sit the airline page for a HY ticket. Other carriers publish their own TAS
      close-outs — do not copy the 40-minute international leftover onto a
      Tashkent HY departure. Arrive earlier if you still need a visa stamp, a
      SIM, or the CIP desk.
    summary: >-
      Airline flight-check page: check-in starts 3 hours before departure.
      Tashkent is on the exception list where international check-in ends 1 hour
      before, not the generic 40-minute close-out. Domestic leftover dies at 30
      minutes. Boarding leftover starts 1 hour and ends 20 minutes before
      departure.

  - label: Terminal
    title: International is Terminal 2 — domestic is Terminal 3
    detail: >-
      Wikipedia leftover that T2 and T3 sit on opposite sides of the runway is
      leftover-citation-needed. Connecting international↔domestic means landside
      and a second security. The 2030 new airport in Oʻrtachirchiq /
      Quyichirchiq is not this campus.
    summary: >-
      T2 is the live international hall. T3 opened 2011 for domestic. There is
      no published airside walk between them. The June 2026 unified-terminal
      promise is not a published opening this pass. Do not copy leftover blogs
      that send international arrivals into T3.

      templates. Anor water is 500,000 UZS walk-in. CIP leftover $200 USD is
      leftover-stale against the live som CIP tariff.
    summary: >-
      Uzbekistan Airports does not publish a fountain map or a bottle tariff.
      Anjir water is the quality pick with Priority Pass / LoungeKey. Otherwise
      buy a sealed bottle airside at Duty Free Uzbekistan under the B8–B11 /
      Biznes zali signs.

# Islam Karimov Tashkent International Airport (TAS)
Tashkent, Uzbekistan · Asia-Pacific
Tashkent is a workable two-hall Central Asian hub — Terminal 2 for international, Terminal 3 for domestic, 24/7 Priority Pass in Anjir at gates B5–B11 — but there is no metro, no Uber, and no published airside walk between halls.
## Airportist Score

**6.8 / 10**
Weighted sum of the six published categories (no holistic fudge).
- Ease of use (25%): 6.8 — Wayfinding, security wait, and layout.
- Comfort & amenities (20%): 6.8 — Seating, Wi-Fi, cleanliness, and quiet.
- Food & retail (15%): 6.4 — Food and retail quality and variety.
- Ground access (15%): 7.4 — Transit, taxi, and parking to the city.
- Reliability (15%): 6.2 — Delays, cancellations, and weather resilience.
- Lounges (10%): 7.2 — Worth-it density and access quality.

## At a glance

- Passengers: 9,964,602 (2025)
- Terminals: T2 international; T3 domestic (2011). No published airside walk. Unified hall not live.
- Typical security: 25 min
- On-time: 0%
- Disruption: moderate

## Best for

- International or transit passengers with Priority Pass or LoungeKey (Anjir is 24/7)
- Visa-free ordinary UK/EU passports, and US ordinary passports from 1 January 2026
- Yandex Go to the centre — about 12 km, leftover 15–35 minutes

## Watch out for

- Do not treat the June 2026 unified-terminal promise as a published opening
- T2 international to T3 domestic is landside; leftover UTTT / leftover Uber / leftover Aeroport metro
- Uzbekistan Airways international check-in at TAS dies at 60 minutes, not the generic 40-minute close-out
