Adnec Group's Tourism 365 in an expanded partnership with Uzbekistan-based tour operator EasyBooking, has achieved a new milestone with the launch of the first weekly charter flight, operated by Air Samarkand, connecting Uzbekistan directly to Al Ain.

The flight is part of Tourism 365’s expanded partnership with Uzbekistan-based tour operator EasyBooking, aimed at boosting tourism and fostering greater connectivity between the two destinations.

This surge in tourists will provide a significant boost to Al Ain's tourism industry, reinforcing the emirate’s broader vision of positioning the city as a premier destination for cultural and leisure tourism.

Josep-Anton Grases, CEO of Tourism 365, said: “The launch of the first-ever charter flight from Uzbekistan to Al Ain, made possible through our strategic partnership with EasyBooking, represents a key step in expanding Al Ain’s international tourism reach.

“Together with EasyBooking, we are committed to unlocking new opportunities for travellers to explore Al Ain’s unique cultural heritage and natural wonders, positioning the city as an essential destination within the UAE.”

Odil Khasanov, CEO of EasyBooking, said: “We are happy to expand our partnership with Tourism 365 to launch this direct weekly charter flight from Uzbekistan to Al Ain.

“This collaboration not only strengthens the tourism ties between Uzbekistan and the UAE but also offers our travellers a unique opportunity to explore the cultural richness and heritage of Al Ain.

“By providing seamless travel experiences and customised tour packages, we are confident this initiative will significantly enhance the travel experience for Uzbek tourists and support the growing demand for travel to the emirate.”

Tourism 365 already supports EasyBooking in the operation of charter flights from Uzbekistan to Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and the newly launched route to Al Ain complements these existing connections.

As the local destination management company, Tourism 365 will manage the entire visitor experience for Uzbek tourists, offering tailored accommodation options and curated tourism experiences in Al Ain.

To enhance the travel experience, Tourism 365 will provide Russian-speaking tour guides and airport representatives to ensure seamless communication and a welcoming atmosphere for visitors throughout their stay.

It also highlights the shared vision of both organisations to provide unique travel experiences that cater to the growing demand for accessible and cultural destinations. – TradeArabia News Service
