The bulk of air transportation out of limits of the Kyrgyz Republic is performed by foreign airlines.

Low level of operation of the international air-lines of the Kyrgyz Republic by local air carriers as in the quantitative, and capacity relation in comparison with foreign air carriers, exists for several last years.

During the spring and summer period of 2014 the general share of the Kyrgyz air carriers in operation of the international air-lines from the international airport "Manas" (further - the Manas airport) constituted only about 41%, and from 27.10.2013 for 30.03.2014 - only about 33%.

The annual amount of cargo transportation through the airports of the Kyrgyz Republic makes 5%.

At the moment need of construction of freight terminal for the international airport "Osh" ripened (further - the Osh airport) that will provide access of the population of the Fergana Valley (3 million people) to the specialized terminal. This region is perspective in respect of business activity and high export-import potential. The Osh airport, as well as the Manas airport, is "point of entry" to the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union.

Sharp recession of flights of helicopters of civil aviation of the Kyrgyz Republic is observed since 2012. In many respects it is caused by the high cost of maintenance and different types of repair of the aircraft equipment, and also permanent attraction of helicopters of civil aviation for accomplishment of flights on servicing of the tourist sector and carrying out rescue transactions. Today there is only 1 helicopter suitable for flights. In this regard, for the purpose of development of helicopter aircraft there is need of acquisition of helicopters for civil aviation of the Kyrgyz Republic.

However in case of all this the tendency of increase in the market of passenger air transportation is observed. According to the forecast, the amount of transportations of passengers by 2021 will make about 3,5 one million passengers a year.
