Cinnamon Air
An Uzbekistan-headquartered scheduled carrier operating a compact five-destination regional network centered on Manaus, using Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante aircraft.
About Cinnamon Air
Cinnamon Air is identified under the legal name Samarkand Airways and is headquartered in Uzbekistan. It operates as a scheduled airline under the IATA code C7 and ICAO code UZS. Its founding year, current ownership structure and relationship between the Cinnamon Air brand and the Samarkand Airways legal identity are not sufficiently clear from dependable public information, so travellers should verify the operating carrier shown on their booking documents before departure.
The airline's scheduled network comprises 5 destinations across 1 country and 5 routes. Manaus is its busiest departure hub, followed by Manicore and Borba. The cities served are Manaus, Manicore, Borba, Coari and Maues, forming a focused regional network. These services connect communities separated by substantial distances and challenging overland travel conditions, with Manaus functioning as the principal gateway and the most important connecting point in the operation.
The aircraft type associated with the operation is the Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante, a Brazilian-built twin-turboprop designed for short regional sectors and airports with modest infrastructure. It is considerably smaller than the regional jets and mainline aircraft used by larger airlines. Travellers should expect a compact cabin, limited overhead storage and a straightforward onboard product. Published information does not establish distinct business-class or premium-economy cabins, so passengers should anticipate a primarily single-class regional service.
Cinnamon Air is not known to belong to Star Alliance, SkyTeam or Oneworld. No proprietary frequent-flyer programme can be confirmed, and travellers should not assume that flights will earn points or status benefits with a major international airline. The compact network is better suited to direct regional travel than alliance-based connections. Passengers booking onward journeys should check whether baggage can be transferred and allow adequate time when using separate tickets.
The airline's main practical strength is access: its short regional links can simplify journeys between Manaus and smaller cities such as Borba, Coari, Manicore and Maues. The trade-off is the limited flexibility inherent in a five-destination network operated with small turboprop aircraft. Schedule changes may leave fewer same-day alternatives than travellers would find with a large carrier, while baggage capacity can be constrained. Confirm departure details and essential baggage arrangements directly before travelling.
Good to know
Flying with Cinnamon Air — what to expect
Compact Turboprop Cabin
The Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante has a small regional cabin with less personal and storage space than a mainline aircraft. Keep essential items in a compact bag that can be handled easily.
Confirm Baggage Rules
Small turboprops can have stricter weight and space constraints than larger aircraft. Check the allowance attached to your fare and ask about unusual or bulky items before travelling.
Manaus Connections
Manaus is the airline's busiest departure point and its principal network gateway. Leave a generous connection margin, particularly when transferring on separate tickets.
Limited Schedule Alternatives
With only 5 routes, disruption may not leave a convenient same-day replacement. Reconfirm the flight time and avoid tightly timed onward arrangements.
Verify Operating Details
Check the carrier name, terminal and check-in instructions printed on the final itinerary. This is especially important when a booking platform displays different brand and legal-carrier information.
