1. BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Kyrgyz Airways is the first of its kind internationally managed national airlines of Kyrgyz Republic
that aims to provide safe, economical, and reliable air transport for inbound and outbound
traffic and showcase Kyrgyzstan as a preferred destination by offering a strong competition to
all the one stop international airlines operating currently in the region.

Today customers have choice to only one stop carriers with extended layovers through hubs
that is tremendously increasing journey time and resulting in higher fares. There is no national
airline in Kyrgyzstan and there is an acute shortage of Aviation personnel with international
experience. Our plan is to bring in a strong expat team who have extensive global experience
and use the low cost of operations In Kyrgyzstan to have the edge over the current one stop
carriers who are operating from much more expensive bases.

Kyrgyz Airways aims to target religious traffic to Saudi Arabia from the catchment area of 16
million Muslim population, 40,000 students from India and Pakistan, VFR traffic, nature seekers,
inbound tourism from GCC, the Russian market which is now struggling with reduced capacity
due to sanctions, Chinese market, and outbound tourism to south India. Additional Kyrgyz
Airways has already completed discussion with major GCC airlines to carry traffic to their hubs
and feed their Global networks.

It is pertinent to mention here that today the region has been identified as the largest growing
low-cost market in the world so there is no better time to enter and consolidate and Kyrgyz
Airways offers domestic and international flights to meet the growing demand for air travel in
the region. We will operate a modern fleet of aircraft, including narrow-body and wide-body
planes, equipped with advanced technology for safety, efficiency, and comfort. The
company will prioritize safety as its top priority and comply with all safety regulations to ensure
the safety of its passengers, crew, and aircraft. To establish a strong brand reputation and gain
a competitive advantage, the airline will focus on providing exceptional customer service to
its passengers. This will include a hassle-free booking process, comfortable seating, timely and
efficient handling of luggage, and friendly and helpful staff.

strategically located between China, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan, making it a key
transit hub for air travel in the region.
The air transport sector makes a

supported another 16,000 jobs. On top of this, the sector is estimated to support a further
4,000 jobs through the wages it pays its employees, some or all of which are subsequently
spent on consumer goods and services. Foreign tourists arriving by air to Kyrgyzstan, who
spend their money in the local economy, are estimated to support an additional 13,000 jobs.
In total 36,000 jobs are supported by air transport and tourists arriving by air.

The air transport industry, including airlines and its supply chain, are estimated to support
US $153 million of GDP in Kyrgyzstan. Spending by foreign tourists supports a further US $45
million of the country’s GDP, totaling US $198 million. In total, 2.4 percent of the country’s
GDP is supported by inputs to the air transport sector and foreign tourists arriving by
air2.
Air transport facilitates flows of goods, investment and people.

The most important benefits from air transport go to passengers and shippers and the
spillover impacts on their businesses. The value to passengers, shippers and the economy
can be seen from the spending of foreign tourists and the value of exports (though note
these figures include all modes of transport). A key economic flow, stimulated by good air
transport connections, is foreign direct investment, creating productive assets that will
generate a long-term flow of GDP.

the World Economic Forum’s Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Index, the country ranks 23rd
out of 140 countries for visa openness. In all these scores, higher is better.

Company. Both airlines operate a fleet of narrow-body aircraft and serve key domestic
routes, including Bishkek-Osh, Bishkek-Jalal-Abad, and Bishkek-Batken. The market is
relatively underserved, with limited competition, which presents an opportunity for new
airlines to enter the market and establish a strong foothold.

International Market
Kyrgyzstan's international market is primarily served by foreign airlines, with limited direct
flights to key international destinations. Currently, Aeroflot, Turkish Airlines, Ural Airways,
Jazeera Airways, Flydubai, Air Arabia, Pegasus operate flights to Kyrgyzstan's main

Market Demand Forecast


Air transport in Kyrgyzstan is forecast to grow by 167% in the next 20 years under the
“current trends” scenario. This would result in an additional 2.7 million passenger
departures by 2038. If met, this increased demand would support approximately US $530
million of GDP and around 45,400 jobs.

Passengers USD GDP Jobs

2023

Upside 6.1 M $750 M 65,709

Downside 3.5 M $430 M 36,943

The demand for air travel in the region is driven by several factors, including business travel,
tourism, and the large number of Kyrgyz citizens living abroad. The tourism industry in Kyrgyz
Republic has been growing rapidly, with the country's natural beauty, unique culture, and
historical sites attracting more visitors each year.
