Tashkent, also has two 787-8s on order.

and operational flexibility, will enable us to successfully meet
the growing demand,” said Valeriy Tian, director-general,
Uzbekistan Airways. “As we celebrate our 20th anniversary and
implement our growth plans, we look forward to continuing our
partnership with Boeing.”

the world.
“We congratulate Uzbekistan Airways on their
20th year of successful operations and Boeing is proud to be a
partner with this technically advanced and extremely well managed
airline,” said Marty Bentrott, vice president of Sales for Middle
East, Russia and Central Asia, Boeing Commercial Airplanes. “With
the new, even more passenger-pleasing cabin interior, low
operating costs and technological innovations, Boeing is confident
that the 767-300ERs will play an important role as Uzbekistan
