Try HY TAS-FRU. I did this a month ago and apart from the 0535 departure, it was fine. RJ85 that was one third full. Full serve breakfast in a plastic box. Everything worked and was as good as any western operation. The only problem was TAS airport which is an exercise in imagination and endurance. Inadequate signage and multiple passport checks. On no account should you declare you are carrying more foreign currency out than you bring in (this is possible because some hotel ATMs give out USD cash -a godsend in Central Asia). FRU airport is modern and efficient compared with TAS. At FRU check out how much heavy metal belonging to the USAF is hanging around. There is an ATM at FRU airport that takes foreign credit cards.

Edited: I just saw that the OP was 4 years ago!
