TAS Airport Overview

To help you plan your layover or overnight sleepover, here is a quick run-down about what to expect during your time at Islam Karimov Tashkent International Airport.

What to Expect

Tashkent Airport (code: TAS) has two separate terminals: the recently renovated Terminal 2 serves international flights, and Terminal 3, which opened in 2011, handles domestic routes. Travellers describe slow check-in queues and lengthy security procedures, so do arrive early. Facilities include eateries, shops, and free WiFi (which may or may not work). Economy class passengers can pay to enter an airport lounge.

Security & Safety

Sleeping in any airport can include a certain level of risk, especially when travelling alone. It’s important to take certain precautions to ensure your safety and the security of your valuables. Here are a few tips:

Safety First. It’s a good idea to know where the security office is located and look for video cameras where you plan to sleep. You can also ask the security personnel for advice on the safest places to spend the night.
Don’t Seclude Yourself. If you’re travelling alone, we recommend you stay near other travellers or close to security. This will help you feel more secure and deter potential thieves.
Hide Your Valuables. It’s also important to hide your valuables. Don’t leave them out in plain view, as this could make you a target for theft. Additionally, if you are a deep sleeper, you may want to padlock your bag to something or sleep with your bag up against a wall to make it harder for someone to access zippers and pockets. We have received reports of sleepers who woke up without their phones and laptop bags. The travellers were left with just their headphones and laptop bag strap.
Stay Alert. It’s best to stay alert and awake if you feel unsafe or uncomfortable. Drink coffee or other caffeinated beverages to help you stay awake, and remember that you can always catch up on sleep during your flight. These simple precautions can help you enjoy a safe night at the airport.

Taxis are readily available for hire in the ground transportation area. There are no meters, so negotiate a fare with the driver before starting your journey. Russian or Uzbek language skills are required! If you are travelling light and on a tight budget, consider taking a shared-ride minibus taxi.

Pro Tip: When using a taxi, be careful, because many people try to scam you and charge a lot more then normal. A good alternative is to use the taxiapp Yandex Taxi. Works great but you can only pay cash. (From a reader/October 2019)
