Construction of airports in Osh and Jalal-Abad underway

Manasbek Samidinov, Chairman of the Board of “Manas International Airport” OJSC, made a working visit to the Osh and Jalal-Abad regions on October 14, 2026, to review construction progress on new airport projects. He toured the sites, assessed the pace of work, verified compliance with quality standards, and heard reports from responsible specialists and representatives of contracting organizations.

The inspection focused on whether construction followed approved schedules, the quality of materials used, and the conformity of work with design documentation and technical requirements. Samidinov said the projects are strategically important for developing Kyrgyzstan’s civil aviation, improving transport access in the regions, and strengthening the country’s international aviation potential. “We face a clear task: to ensure high-quality construction and adhere to established deadlines,” he stated.

The new terminal complex at Osh International Airport, covering over 25,000 square meters, will increase capacity and passenger comfort. Following the inspection, a directive was issued to complete it by the end of 2026. The new Jalal-Abad International Airport, which includes a terminal complex, a runway and facilities for safe aircraft servicing, is scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2027.
