The director of OJSC Khujand International Airport, Qurbon Alimardon, noted that the decline in passenger traffic is negatively affecting airport operations.

“We are operating at only 30% of our capacity. As the figures show, the number of departures and arrivals has decreased. For various reasons, people have been flying less frequently. Overall, last year was a difficult one for us,” he emphasized.
