Founded in Dushanbe in 2025, Shohin currently operates two Mil Mi-8 helicopters. The new aircraft will allow the airline to launch scheduled domestic and international passenger services, a significant expansion from its current operation.
The A320neos will seat 176 passengers, while the A321neos will accommodate 196 passengers in a two-class layout. Airbus said the aircraft will serve regional and international routes.
Shohin becomes Airbus' first airline customer in Tajikistan. The country's scheduled passenger market is dominated by Somon Air, which operates Boeing 737s and a sole 787 Dreamliner. State-owned Tajik Air suspended scheduled flights several years ago and is seeking to resume international services after years of inactivity.
Airbus did not disclose a delivery schedule or the engine selection for the four aircraft.
