Centrum Air announces the launch of a new initiative aimed at supporting historical and cultural values, under which the airline’s aircraft will be named after outstanding historical figures.
The first aircraft to receive a name under this initiative will be a passenger Airbus with registration number UK32070, which will be named after the great statesman and military leader Amir Temur. The choice is symbolically timed to coincide with the date of his birth.
This initiative is aimed at promoting historical heritage and reflects respect for the history and contributions of our ancestors, which is an important part of the company’s values and cultural mission.
Amir Temur went down in history as a great military leader and statesman, during whose reign Samarkand became a major center of science, culture, and trade, while international ties between East and West actively developed. Today, aviation continues this mission by connecting countries and contributing to the strengthening of international ties and cultural exchange.
Founder and CEO of Centrum Holding, Abdulaziz Abdurakhmanov, commented:
“ Aviation connects cities and countries, just as great figures of our history once united cultures, developed trade, and strengthened ties between nations. Naming one of our aircraft after Amir Temur is a sign of respect for our heritage and a symbol of our mission to continue connecting people and opening new horizons.”
As part of this initiative, the names of outstanding historical figures will be assigned to all 25 aircraft within the holding, including the fleet of the private cargo airline My Freighter. The aircraft will bear the names of great ancestors who made significant contributions to the development of statehood, science, culture, and international relations. In this way, Centrum Air will carry out a cultural mission, presenting the country’s rich historical heritage on the international stage.

London, UK, 4 March 2026 – Centrum Air has successfully completed a comprehensive train-the-trainer programme with the support of Acron Aviation. This initiative has equipped our internal training team with the expertise and skills needed to independently deliver Crew Resource Management (CRM) training to our pilots.The initiative represents a significant step forward in enabling culture change within Centrum Air, providing its instructors with the skills, tools, and knowledge to deliver CRM training, including Human Factors through a sustainable, in-house model. Acron Aviation’s dedicated training team, experts in CRM, designed and developed the tailored courseware, delivered a series of train-the-trainer workshops, and supported the initial roll-out alongside Centrum Air’s newly qualified instructors. This collaborative approach ensures both immediate operational readiness and long-term training resilience.David Coward, President, Acron Aviation, said: “Empowering airlines to build their own training capability is central to our philosophy of creating lasting value for our customers. By equipping Centrum Air’s team to independently deliver CRM training, we are not only enhancing operational safety and efficiency today but also supporting their long-term growth ambitions.” Coward continued, “This programme reflects our commitment to building ongoing partnerships, working side-by-side with our customers to develop sustainable solutions that strengthen their organisation for years to come.”The benefits to Centrum Air extend beyond operational efficiency. By embedding CRM principles deeply into its safety culture, the airline is strengthening pilot performance, supporting its growth trajectory, and advancing its application for European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) regulatory approval - an accreditation that requires robust CRM practices.Eldar Khamdeev, Deputy CEO for Flight Operations, , LLC My Freighter / Centrum Air said: “This foundational approach positions Centrum Air as innovators, being the only airline in region with the capability to independently conduct CRM training. The benefits of upskilling our trainers, enhancing pilot capabilities and reducing reliance on external providers will only strengthen the airlines safety culture.”This milestone further reinforces the growing partnership between the two organisations. Centrum Air pilots already complete their Type Rating training at Acron Aviation’s London Training Centre, and with Acron Aviation maintaining oversight of CRM standards, the collaboration continues to build long-term value for both companies.

Centrum Air announces adjustments to fuel surcharges on certain international routes. The decision has been made in response to the significant increase in aviation fuel prices on global markets.The changes affect several scheduled routes where fuel price dynamics have had the greatest impact on operating costs. The adjustment of the fuel surcharge is intended to partially offset increased expenses and ensure the sustainability of the flight programme.At the same time, base airfares remain competitive, and the introduced changes are limited in scope and applied selectively to specific routes. The airline is taking measures to optimize costs and minimize the impact of external factors on ticket prices for passengers.Centrum Air emphasizes that this decision will help maintain schedule stability, uphold high flight safety standards, and ensure continuity of operations amid volatility in aviation fuel prices.
