Flight Time from Chicago (ORD) to Tashkent (TAS)

Block time for Chicago → Tashkent is about 12.99 hours non-stop on the site's cruise model. One connection is the realistic worst case for most calendars: expect the total to land near 16 hours with a single well-chosen hub, and near 21 hours with two.

Ultra-long-haul arithmetic applies here: the 12.99-hour airborne leg is long enough that splitting it at a hub can beat fatigue even when it loses the clock race. Factor the 11-hour shift into recovery plans: eastbound arrivals at Tashkent generally bite harder than westbound ones.

Flexible-flier trick: price ORD against TAS and then against each nearby field below — secondary endpoints within 700 km sometimes clear the fare by a full cabin class. That leaves ORD → TAS as the only sensible air routing, which concentrates fare power in a single search.

None of these nearby fields has a paired calculator page from ORD yet, so use the distance and time columns to estimate any rerouting yourself. Ground transfer from the alternative airport back into Tashkent is the catch for arrivals off the ORD service: the 0 km back-offset is time you must win back in fare savings.

A 10:00 departure works out to roughly 09:59 on the clock in Tashkent — the 12.99 h airborne leg plus the UTC−6 → UTC+5 shift. Daily spend shifts at landing: $88 in Tashkent against $230 at home in Chicago, using the dataset's mid-range figures.

On those numbers Tashkent is the cheaper place to linger — the gap is $142 per day, which over a week funds a second flight. With 11 hours gained eastbound, the 10,478 km out to Tashkent ends in a serious jet-lag bill — plan a quiet first day.
