UZBEKISTAN AIRWAYS

Uzbekistan's national airline operates two to three weekly flights from Paris - Charles de Gaulle, depending on the tourist season. There is no direct connection with Bishkek, but you can get there with a stopover in Tashkent (Uzbekistan) or Almaty (Kazakhstan). These two capitals have daily connections with neighboring Kyrgyzstan, and the flight takes just over 1 hour. The Uzbek airline's flight schedules are the easiest to cope with, as they allow for the time difference between France and Central Asia.
