Airlines flying Chennai to Tashkent
The most practical routing is Chennai to Delhi (≈ 2.5h) followed by a Delhi–Tashkent flight (≈ 4h) on Uzbekistan Airways or IndiGo. Air India also serves Delhi–Tashkent on select days.

Cheapest time to fly & book
Uzbekistan's tourism peaks from April to June and September to October when Silk Road cities enjoy mild weather. Winter (December–February) is bitterly cold and sees fewer travellers, bringing lower fares. Booking ≈ 4–8 weeks in advance is usually sufficient for this route. The relatively thin schedule means fewer last-minute discounts, so early booking is prudent.
Flight duration & routing
Via Delhi the total journey is ≈ 6–8 hours including a connection. Gulf routings via Dubai push the total to ≈ 10–12 hours due to the geographic detour. Tashkent International Airport (TAS) is ≈ 12 km south of the city centre, reachable by taxi in ≈ 20 minutes. The Tashkent metro also connects to nearby stations. The time difference is minimal — just 30 minutes behind IST.
Baggage & fares
Uzbekistan Airways includes 20–23 kg in economy class. If connecting via a domestic IndiGo flight to Delhi, the domestic leg may allow only 15 kg unless booked on a combined international ticket. Ensure your bags are booked through if on separate tickets. Indicative fares are live on FlightGPT as of May 2026. This route is relatively affordable compared to other Central Asian destinations.
Airports & terminals
If routing via Delhi, the Chennai–Delhi leg departs from MAA's domestic terminal, and you will need to transfer to Delhi's Terminal 3 for the international Tashkent flight — allow at least 3 hours for the connection if on separate tickets. Tashkent Airport has a single terminal that handles both domestic and international flights. Facilities are basic but improving, with currency exchange and SIM card counters available.
