🟣 Tashkent with RTM and AirAsia

The transition from the comfort of Fly AirAsia X’s premium cabin to the streets of Tashkent felt like stepping through a portal in time. If the flight was about the ease of modern travel, our first major stop, the Hazrati Imam Complex, was a masterclass in history.

Located in the heart of the Old City, this is the spiritual pulse of Tashkent. For the Above The Cloud crew, the challenge was capturing the sheer scale of the Hazrati Imam Jami Mosque. Built in 2007 but designed in the 16th-century tradition, its architectural grandeur—marked by two towering 50-meter minarets and intricate sandalwood columns—provided a stunning cinematic backdrop for Mekyun.

But the true weight of this location lies in the Muyi Muborak Madrasah library. Here, the highlight is on one of the Islamic world's most significant treasures: the Uthman Quran. Dating back to the 7th century and stained with the blood of the third Caliph, Uthman ibn Affan, it is believed to be the oldest Quran in existence.

Watching the RTM - Radio Televisyen Malaysia team work here was interesting; the energy shifted from the fast-paced "travelogue" style to something more reverent. It was a reminder to future viewers that Tashkent isn't just a holiday destination; it is a place where you stand face-to-face with the giants of history.

Lights, Camera, Tashkent!

This wasn't your typical boarding call. As the Gaya Travel team arrived at KLIA2, the air wasn't just filled with the usual anticipation of travel, but with the electric focus of a production crew in motion. We were there to document the making of RTM - Radio Televisyen Malaysia’s Above The Cloud, a special feature highlighting the premium side of flying, with AirAsia X (Fly AirAsia) featured in this episode.

The spotlight was on our host, the energetic Mekyun, who began her journey experiencing the seamless ease of AirAsia’s premium check-in services.

While not typically included in the standard fare, Mekyun took a detour into the Plaza Premium Lounge, offering a glimpse into how travellers can elevate their pre-flight experience. Amidst the quiet luxury of the lounge, the cameras rolled on a meet-and-greet with Benyamin Ismail, the CEO of AirAsia X Berhad.

From there, we boarded D7122 to Tashkent where Mekyun is experiencing flying with AirAsia X’s premium flatbed, signalling that this journey to Uzbekistan was going to be something truly special.
