SHORT ANSWER

Taxi or Yandex Go is easiest for most arrivals.

Tashkent International Airport is only a short drive from central Tashkent. For a first arrival with luggage, an app-based or official taxi is usually the least confusing option. Public buses are cheaper but require more local navigation.

PRACTICAL INFO

Your main options

📱

Yandex Go

As of the latest airport access update, Yandex Go can pick up passengers at the arrivals area. Order in the app so the fare is shown before the ride.

🚕

Official taxi

Several licensed airport taxi operators serve arrivals. Use official desks / marked pickup areas rather than negotiating with random solicitors.

🚌

Bus

The cheapest option. Routes and stops can change, so confirm the current bus for your exact destination after landing.

PRACTICAL INFO

Avoid the classic airport-taxi problem

Do not accept the first unsolicited ride without knowing the price. If you use an app, check the licence plate before getting in. If you use an official taxi, confirm the fare or tariff before departure.

Late arrival: taxi is usually the practical choice after a long flight, especially if your accommodation is not near a simple bus route.
