This ICAO Category II airport is the primary hub of Uzbekistan
Airways, and is the largest international airport in Uzbekistan,
and the busiest in Central Asia. The airport comprises two
terminals: Terminal 2 receives international flights, Terminal 3 is
for domestic traffic.
Terminal 2 was rebuilt in 2001, and is currently undergoing
renovations. It has a capacity of 1000 passengers/hour and serves
more than two million passengers per year. Other facilities include
waiting lounges, CIP and VIP halls, restaurants and bars, currency
exchange offices, duty free shops, airlines ticket counters and
sales offices, and a 24 hour pharmacy. The terminal operates at
near maximum capacities; arriving passengers frequently spend an
average of two hours completing customs and immigration
formalities. Renovations in the departure area have eased
congestion somewhat, but it is still recommended that passengers
arrive two and a half hours prior to departure for international
flights.
Terminal 3 opened in 2011 with a capacity of 400 passengers per
hour. The two terminals are separated by the runway, requiring
passengers transiting from international to domestic flights and
vice versa to exit the airport in order to transfer between
them.
The government of Uzbekistan is planning to relocate Tashkent
Airport to a new site by 2030
