Urgench International Airport

Urgench, Uzbekistan · Asia-Pacific

The gateway to Khiva, 3 km from Urgench, with 862,522 passengers in 2025, just over half of them international. A new direct train runs to Khiva once a day. The airport is under reconstruction until the end of 2028: arrivals use a temporary hall, food is very limited and the only lounge is a paid CIP hall with no published price.
