Starting from January 4, 2026, Asman Airlines announced the expansion of its network of subsidized flights across Kyrgyzstan. The new routes and increased flight frequency are aimed at improving access to domestic air travel for residents of the regions, as well as promoting domestic tourism. This program is implemented with government support and covers routes where irregular flights were previously observed.
As part of this initiative, the following routes are planned:
— Bishkek – Talas: two flights a week on Mondays and Fridays, ticket price is 2100 soms.
— Bishkek – Naryn: similarly, two flights a week at the same fare.
— Bishkek – Kerben: flights operate on Wednesdays and Fridays, ticket costs 3600 soms.
— Bishkek – Kazarman: twice a week on the same days, price is 3100 soms.
— Bishkek – Batken: six times a week, ticket for 4500 soms.
— Bishkek – Razakov: also six flights a week, price is 4800 soms.
— Bishkek – Karakol: during the winter period, four flights a week, fare is 4000 soms.
— Osh – Karakol: seasonal route with two flights a week, ticket costs 5000 soms.
Representatives of the JSC "Airports of Kyrgyzstan" emphasize that subsidized flights contribute to improving transport links between the capital and the regions, as well as stimulating local economic activity. Tickets can be purchased through the Asman Airlines mobile app, which allows avoiding additional fees and quickly booking the flight.
However, the busiest routes are not subject to subsidies. The Bishkek – Osh and Bishkek – Manas flights operate at commercial rates due to high demand and competition, with ticket prices ranging from 3600 to 5500 soms for the Bishkek – Osh route and from 3500 to 4100 soms for the Bishkek – Manas route.
