Turkey and Armenia are set to be linked by nonstop flights once again as the countries make efforts to normalize relations.

Somon Air CEO Thomas Hallam wants to expand the Tajikistan airline’s network through codeshares and believes the Central Asia-India market is ripe for growth.

Asia's four leading airlines have all confirmed their attendance and Routes Silk Road 2019 in Kazakhstan.

Routes Silk Road will bring together key decision makers from the region’s airlines, airports and tourism authorities for face-to-face meetings, networking opportunities and the Routes conference programme.

The airline has recently completed a rebranding and now positions itself as a full service carrier, and with it has launched a total of five new international routes to Dusseldorf, Cologne, Bishkek, Amsterdam and Paris.

Ukraine is a huge market opportunity, but for many carriers there have been notable restrictions on air access. Negotiations on a full EU-Ukraine open skies agreement had reached a critical stage over the past couple of years, but have fallen on a more regional structure. This has initially seen the Ukraine Infrastructure Ministry allow the western Ukrainian city of Lviv to be linked directly to European Union destinations without any restrictions as a trial run.

Cologne Bonn Airport welcomes a total of 20 new destinations for its 2015 schedule, including ten new long-haul destinations operated by Eurowings, as well as four new airlines and ten new services.

Atlasglobal Airines are offering a 20% discount on all flights to Tbilisi, exclusive to Routes Silk Road delegates.
