Somon air revives Dushanbe–Minsk link as a short-term series

A Dushanbe–Minsk link previously operated in 2021. The current series is a targeted revival: in July 2026, Somon Air discussed the route's prospects with the management of Minsk National Airport. The two-week window functions as a demand test whose outcome may inform a decision on a permanent route.

The program fits Somon Air's broader network expansion following the delivery of its first Boeing 737 MAX 8, under Tajikistan's open-skies policy.
