It will be Bishkek - Tashkent

Due to the different floods and political developments in Central Asia, I decided to change the path of my travel. It will be

Bishkek - Tashkent

I booked yesterday the flights Geneva - Bishkek through Moscou on August, the 13th. And return on Sept, the 18th from Tashkent. I will fly with Aeroflot, like last year through the airport of Sherementyevo in Moscau. This airport is quite weird. It has two terminals, the international one and the domestic one. The flights for Central Asia start at the domestic one. To go from one to the other, we have to take a bus, which runs through an aircraft cemetery, full of big Antonov or Tupolev. The first time you see it, you ask yourself if one of these aircrafts is the one which will bring you to Bishkek... ;-)
I will arrive in Bishkek at 4 am, as usual, on the airport of Frunze, which is also one of the US military airbase. This is also weird to land on an airfield whose taxiway is occupied by C-130 and F-15...
