Airport contact
Uzbekistan's principal international gateway and the main hub for Uzbekistan Airways and Centrum Air. Built for roughly 11M passengers/year, it is now nearly at that ceiling (9.96M pax in 2025, +14% YoY), which has driven groundbreaking (15 Oct 2025) on a new $2.5bn first-phase, 20M-pax airport about 17km south (near Yangiyo'l) that is intended to eventually replace it. All Uzbek aerodrome ICAO codes changed prefix from UT to UZ effective 2 Oct 2025 (full operational transition 29 Oct 2025), so this airport's code changed from UTTT to UZTT.

Confirmed via direct review of uzairwaystech.com's ground-handling service page, which explicitly lists "Refueling with aviation fuel" among its ramp services at Tashkent — i.e. UAT performs the physical into-plane fuelling operation (bulk fuel sourced from the airport TZK/fuel farm and outside suppliers).

Saneg JetWhites
Draft describes this as the aviation-fuel distribution arm of Saneg (formerly Jizzakh Petroleum/Uzbekneftegaz JV), supplying Jet A-1/Jet A-1 SSF/TS-1 at Tashkent airport since April 2025 via a TZK complex with up to 400,000 t/yr storage. Saneg itself is independently confirmed as a real, major Uzbek private oil & gas company with a documented tie to Fergana Oil Refinery (an August 2024 Air Products hydrogen-assets deal at Fergana). However the "JetWhites" brand name, its presence specifically at TAS, and the customer/market-share/tonnage figures in the draft could not be independently corroborated via available sources — kept as a plausible entrant given the parent company is real, but flagged unconfirmed rather than dropped.

Qo'noq Tashkent Airport Hotel (Sleep Lounge & Showers, Terminal 2)
Confirmed via independent local press (gazeta.uz, 24 June 2025): a capsule/sleep-pod facility with six sleep pods (beds, climate control, power outlets) opened in Tashkent airport's departure terminal for transit passengers and early arrivals, matching the draft's "6-capsule" detail. The "24-room"/Qo'noq brand name and Terminal-2-specific siting were not independently re-verified, and no documented airline crew-contract terms were found — kept as unconfirmed for aviation/crew use specifically, since its primary marketed use is transit passengers rather than crew rest.
