History

HumoAir was established by Uzbekistan's national airline, Uzbekistan Airways. The country's Cabinet of Ministers signed a decree to transfer a fleet of 43 An-2 aircraft to HumoAir in January 2020. The carrier received an AOC in May 2020.[2]

Switzerland's Valleyroad Capital S.A acquired HumoAir at the start of 2023 for $2.4 million. The deal planned to revitalize the airline and re-brand it as a low-cost airline.[5]

On 29 February 2024 HumoAir announced suspension of all flights since 11 March 2024[6] until April 2024.[7] The decision to suspend domestic flights is part of HumoAir's broader strategy to prepare for the launch of international routes to destinations such as Kazakhstan, UAE, Turkey, China, Qatar and Azerbaijan. This transition entails replanning and restructuring efforts within the airline.[8]
