Direct flights between Budapest and this exotic capital from April!
The Qanot Sharq airline flew a few times between Budapest and Tashkent between 20 August and 10 September 2023. It then disappeared from the booking system and timetables. From April this year, however, the Uzbek capital will be available again from Budapest.
New Budapest flight by Qanot Sharq
After a short break, from April, the Uzbek capital, Tashkent will be accessible again from Budapest with one flight a week, and from 5 May with two flights a week, AIRportal.hu reports. Qanot Sharq flights will operate on Wednesdays in April, according to the latest Aeroroutes data, and from 5 May, the airline will start operating flights on Fridays.
According to the published schedule, flight HH 411 would take off from Tashkent at 09:10 local time, arrive in Budapest at 11:40 and return with flight HH 412 at 13:00, landing in the capital of Uzbekistan at 22:10.
The flights will be operated by the airline’s Airbus A320-200 aircraft. Qanot Sharq originally planned to operate two flights per week on the route from the start of the summer timetable, AIRportal writes.
Budapest–Tashkent was already operated last year
The airline flew a few times to Budapest between 20 August and 10 September 2023. However, the flight subsequently disappeared from the booking system and timetables. Last September, after just 3 flights and 2 weeks, the flight from Hungary to Uzbekistan’s capital, announced by the Foreign Minister in August, was cancelled, Index wrote in September.
Péter Szijjártó announced on 19 August 2023 that a direct flight will be established between Budapest and the Uzbek capital, Tashkent. At the time, he said that Qanot Sharq would operate two flights a week between the two countries from September, and from the beginning of next year (i.e. 2024) the number of flights would increase to three a week, and from 2025 to four a week.
He said that the number of consuls at the Hungarian Embassy in Tashkent had been increased in view of the launch of the flight. On top of that, the visa issuance process had been speeded up, so Uzbeks could travel to Hungary more smoothly than before, and the same was true vice versa.
About Qanot Sharq
Qanot Sharq started operations in 1998 as the country’s first privately owned airline, operating passenger and cargo flights with Boeing 757 and Ilyushin Il-76 aircraft before its closure in 2012, AIRportal.hu writes. The company relaunched in the summer of 2021 with two leased Airbus A320-200s (which were more than 15 years old), and currently has two new A321neo aircraft in its fleet, joined by an Airbus A330-200 in October 2023.
