Here's what nobody tells you about flying a snub-nosed dog on Uzbekistan Airways: they'll take dogs in the cabin, but only if the paperwork lines up. Mochi and I have hit this wall before, and it stings when you're already at the counter. Uzbekistan Airways accepts dogs in the cabin, which is rare enough to celebrate. The catch is in the fine print, and that's where most people trip.
Uzbekistan Airways's pet policy splits into cabin and cargo. This page summarizes the weight limits, fees, brachycephalic-breed restrictions, and carrier specifications for both modes — sourced from the airline's official pet pages.

Uzbekistan Airways requires the cabin animal booking request no later than 36 hours before scheduled departure. Book the pet slot the moment the flight is confirmed, not the night before. Waiting until check-in leaves the request outside the window, and the counter cannot add a dog on the spot. Lock in that 36-hour reservation early and confirm it in writing.
Uzbekistan Airways prohibits acceptance of dogs bound for import into the United States, both as cabin baggage and in the hold. A United States destination closes this route for the dog entirely. Route the trip through a different carrier for that leg, or split the itinerary so the animal never boards a United States-bound Uzbekistan Airways flight. Verify the final destination before booking anything.
The cabin pet fee on Uzbekistan Airways runs 250 USD one way. Budget 250 USD per direction, so a round trip doubles to 500 USD before any other charges. Pay it as a separate line from the passenger ticket and keep the receipt. Confirm the amount at booking, since the fee attaches to the animal, not the seat.
So that's the Uzbekistan Airways picture: cabin dogs welcome, a US destination off the table, and a fee that adds up fast. Don't wing it the way I once did at a customs window. Build a personalized plan for your exact route and dog before you pay for anything. Pawgo's plan-builder walks you through the microchip, the 36-hour window, and the fee, so nothing ambushes you at the counter.
