Convenient - arrival directly at the resort. Tamchi is a good, new airport, staff
- polite. A small minus is the taxi driver "mafia", just get ready that you cannot order a taxi to the airport via the Internet (but the prices are still acceptable). I arrived with a dog - no problems (if you follow the procedures).
Ps: If you need a veterinary certificate, it can be done in many places; the veterinarian drove up to us himself, thank him more.
A small resort airport. But very clean and cozy. We liked everything. There is an exchanger.
For info: many people carry honey from Issyk-Kul - it is allowed only in luggage, even thickened. From a security point of view, this is the right thing to do, just keep in mind not to shift in a hurry.
A small airport within walking distance from the highway. Behind the highway is the lake itself. Polite staff of the airport itself. Free toilet and Wi-Fi. From the street there is a gorgeous view of the lake and the mountains from the other side. The shore of the lake near the airport is sandy. A narrow strip of some trees stretches along the birch. There are probably 2 covered stops for buses or minibuses near the airport on the busy highway during the day.
Very small, everything is in manual mode, everything is fast and efficient. There is a small cafe (instant coffee, tea, pastries, and a standard set of juices, mineral water, chocolate and cookies.
Currency exchange. Taxi in the form of "bombed".
I liked the airport as a whole, I tried both arrival and departure.
It is good that this airport has been opened. It became convenient. But customs, passport control, are disgusting. It's been a long time since I've come across such an inhumane relationship. There is a huge queue, one person is sitting in the window, sleeping, stamping passports. The second one came, but nothing has changed, it has not become faster.
It is clear that they have little to do with the airport, but they can influence this, request additional forces from the authorities for customs procedures, but for some reason they do not do this or do not persistently.
You can't even buy water inside the airport, because there is only one point of sale that works as it wants.
Nice little airport. There are direct flights to Moscow and other cities of the Russian Federation and neighboring Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. The staff is polite, they work promptly. Due to the small area of the waiting room, mourners are not allowed inside. During takeoff, a gorgeous view of Issyk Kul and Ala-Too.
It is a very small airport, mourners are not allowed. If I didn't have to go with my husband and check if the suitcase was overweight, everything would be fine. Next is a personal emotional story.
Mourners are not allowed at all, referring to the small hall of the registration area. They help with the suitcase for those who ask, but we had to check for overweight and unload if necessary. I was not ready to go back and forth in case of an advantage. At the same time, the place where you can unpack a suitcase together is very small, all the mourners crowd there and there is nowhere to go. But just in the registration hall it is. The staff is not included in the provision, they cannot refer to the norm that regulates such a rule. When asked to show documentation, they refuse to help. Information about the fact that you can not see off on the site is not provided.
I will add separately that the phone number of the Manas airport help desk (here is a branch), presented on the website, does not work at all.
A small, cozy airport, the staff is responsive. They missed the queue with the baby, they gave the password from the wi-fi. The mother and child's room is very decent, there are two cots with clean linen, a sink, a changing table.
A small, cozy airport. Friendly staff, currency exchange, purchase of a local SIM card. Everything is fast. For departure, you must be ready to wait in a dark, poorly ventilated room. It is possible to charge the phone
A small, cozy airport. The staff is very polite, they explain everything with understanding and kindness. There are hot snacks and tea, coffee, do not fly away hungry)
The airport is small, but very convenient because it is located on Issyk-Kul. If you go on vacation or on business to Issyk-Kul, you will not have to get from Bishkek, thereby saving time and money. Aeroflot and Ural Airlines are still flying there. Which is basically enough for me
Since there are few detailed reviews, I will write in more detail. The airport is located almost on the shore of the lake, in the steppe. It's quite difficult to call it an airport, because it's just a small building with a runway. You can only go here if you plan to spend all your time on Lake Issyk-Kul or the cost of air tickets is 5 times cheaper compared to Bishkek. In other cases, there is no point in flying here. There is no infrastructure. You can only leave by taxi, for example, a full taxi to Bishkek costs from 3,000 to 4,000 som (depending on the condition of the car). If you take a minibus taxi, where 7-8 people are taken, then the fare will cost 600 som. Currency exchange is a small stall that is located on the street. You can pay for a taxi in rubles or local som (cards are not accepted anywhere, there are no ATMs)
Taxis leave due to occupancy, or you can pay, for example, for several places to go alone in your row.
Sim cards of the local operator Oh! are also sold on the street for about 200 rubles (in fact, these SIM cards should be free). It takes about 3 hours to get to Bishkek. They are brought to the eastern bus station.
If you are going to fly out of this airport, then you need to arrive almost at the landing, otherwise you will be waiting outside.
Very nice cozy airport. On one side of the mountain, on the other side of the lake... The view is wonderful!!! The building is small, nothing superfluous
It's a small airport, but it's good that there is one. The business jet landed gently, gently dropped us off and we went to get acquainted with Kyrgyzstan, see the sights and eat local dishes.
The airport is like an airport, just very small. Perhaps for people hoping to buy souvenirs at the last moment, it will be important to know that there is exactly one souvenir kiosk, and there are not enough souvenirs in it. You can change the money, but the rate is not too profitable.
The airport staff were polite and pleasant to talk to.
A very small airport. In my opinion, you can arrive 1 hour - 1.5 hours before departure.. You'll make it in time. There are no shops, just a small stall with pies, water and a couple of souvenirs
Funny house in the field)) There you are..
Coffee in dutik is from Nestle's patectic)), buns are baked by themselves)) I was pleased with the staff!
How the suitcases are unloaded is a separate song..They pull me out of the window.
Sooooo small airport, just a hangar. There are queues for registration, since there are only 4 or 5 counters, there is a queue for passport control. Come in advance. If there are two flights at once, then wait in line for an hour.
It's a small, glass airport, but it seems to have a future.. over time, he will grow up to be a batyr (a hero in our opinion)! This is a very promising direction for people who at one time did not have time to see their country of the USSR. Beautiful nature, mountains, the lake itself is incomparable, and what kind of people? I have traveled around the country quite a lot, but I have not heard such a "pure" Russian language, without an accent! And this is the view from the window in the waiting room.
Funny airport) upon arrival, you can buy a sticky SIM card, taxi drivers are also waiting, if you want to order via Yandex (which is cheaper) you will have to go to the highway, since the locals will not let you leave at the airport anyway) there is a shop on the way back, there is no alcohol)
It's small, you'll have to stand in line for registration and exit. Pilots fly very nicely to the airport))))
At the exit from the airport, you immediately purchased a local SIM card (O). Take small money with you (200 or 450 rubles) depends on the number of days of stay. There is no exchanger at the airport. There are many taxis. Luggage is simply put on the floor by a ribbon, everyone comes and picks up their bags. One of the biggest advantages of the airport is its proximity to Cholpon-Ata, you do not need to travel long from Bishkek
The traffic control system, wants the best, it is necessary to increase the number of booths. To develop a transport network, except for taxi drivers-there is no one else there, it is advisable to set up a minibus to nearby cities
There is no place to eat at the airport, there was a delay of 3 hours when I flew away from tudo, there was not even a place to buy water nearby, at least they put a cooler 😡
It's great that there is an airport at all, it takes a very long time to get from Bishkek by bus. We would also make more places for food and public transport to Karakol.
A divine place where it is impossible to get lost, since there is only one boarding gate))) a private, cozy airport on Lake Issyk-Kul, open seasonally, about 3-4 months a year
The fact that there is an airport on Issyk-Kul is cool.
But it is small, if there are 2 flights on departure or arrival, then this is a collapse.
It is quite comfortable with one flight.
There is an exchanger behind the fence, the exchange rate is normal. You can also take a taxi, but it's better to order one.
WiFi is available and it's good to confirm the arrival to the greeters without a SIM card. You can also buy a SIM card outside the fence.
A gorgeous place! Takeoff over the lake . It's a very beautiful place. The staff is friendly . Only there is no waiting room. And there is no place where you can have a good meal.
The airport staff are very greedy, using pretexts to buy seats so that the whole family can sit together. The four of us flew, my husband, me, and two children, 13 and 11 years old. Everyone was put in different places. We were just in shock. Everyone is trying to sell!
The most terrible airport can still reduce the score if possible by 3 times, the staff do not really know their job, rude,aggressive, I paid extra for my luggage, they did not even issue me a check or ticket.They threatened to be taken off the flight.We were standing in the rain with a small child.I don't advise anyone. The worst airport
