:: Centrum Air

Centrum Air has taken delivery of an additional Airbus A321neo, bringing the fleet of Uzbekistan’s largest private airline to 14 aircraft. The jet, registered UK32133, arrived at Islam Karimov Tashkent International Airport today, January 17, coinciding with the airline’s third anniversary.

The carrier plans to expand its fleet to a total of 22 aircraft by the end of 2026, supporting a continued expansion of its route network.

This newly delivered aircraft (MSN 7746) was originally manufactured in 2017 and was previously operated by another Uzbek carrier, Air Samarkand.

Configured in a single-class, high-density layout, it accommodates 221 passengers and is powered by CFMI LEAP-1A33 engines.

Centrum Air stated that in the coming days, this A321neo will enter service on regular routes to the Far East, Europe, and other international destinations where higher capacity and extended range are required.

With this addition, the airline’s operational fleet now comprises 11 narrowbody Airbus A320-family aircraft and three widebody A330-300s.
