The best time to find the cheapest flights to Uzbekistan is between October and February. Luckily for foreigners, the low-season in Uzbekistan comes at a time when the temperatures are stable, with overall cooler weather as opposed to summer heat waves. The cities will not be jam-packed and you will not have to complete your sightseeing in a rush. As always with low-seasons, there is that chance that prices may drop sometime before October. Still, you must aim to book your flight three to four months before departure, that way you get an even lower price.
