Starting June 16, 2025, direct passenger flights will operate between Dushanbe, Tajikistan, and Beijing, China. According to the Civil Aviation Agency under the Government of Tajikistan, these flights will be offered twice a week, on Tuesdays and Saturdays, by China Southern Airlines. 

Following this visit, President Rahmon instructed the Civil Aviation Agency to increase flight frequencies and open new routes. In March 2025, a delegation from China’s Civil Aviation Administration visited Tajikistan, meeting with key officials and representatives from China Southern Airlines. The agency highlights that, in recent years, international air connections from Tajikistan have grown steadily, with new routes to cities like Istanbul, Dubai, Moscow, Almaty, Tashkent, Delhi, and Tehran, further boosting the country’s transit potential and economic and cultural ties. This cooperation will continue to expand to improve competitiveness and passenger convenience.
