Bishkek, Dec. 30, 2025. /Kabar/. The work continues on installing a modern Category III (CAT III) lighting system at Manas International Airport. This project is an important step in improving flight safety and operational reliability at the airport.

The installation of the lighting equipment is being carried out in accordance with international civil aviation standards and is aimed at further modernizing Manas Airport's infrastructure.
The final decision on landing in each specific case is made by the aircraft crew, taking into account the actual weather conditions and the aircraft's operational capabilities.
Manas International Airport consistently implements cutting-edge technologies, strengthening its status as one of the region's key aviation hubs.
