Biman Bangladesh Airlines (Bengali: বিমান বাংলাদেশ এয়ারলাইনস), is the national flag carrier airline of Bangladesh. Its main hub is at Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka and it also operates flights from its secondary hubs Shah Amanat International Airport in Chittagong and Osmani International Airport in Sylhet. The airline provides international passenger and cargo services to Asia and Europe, as well as major domestic routes inside Bangladesh. It has air service agreements with 42 countries and currently flies to 16 different countries.

 

The airline was wholly owned and managed by the government of Bangladesh until 23 July 2007, when it was transformed into the country's largest public limited company by the Caretaker Government of Bangladesh. The airline's headquarters, Balaka Bhaban, is located in Kurmitola, Dhaka. Annual Hajj flights, transporting non-resident Bangladeshi workers and migrants, and the activities of its subsidiaries, form an integral part of the carrier's business.

 

Created in February 1972. In the decades following its founding, the airline expanded its fleet and destinations. At its peak, Biman has operated flights to 29 international destinations, as far away as New York City to the west and Tokyo to the east. Since becoming a public limited company in 2007, the airline has begun to modernize its fleet. The airline has made a deal with Boeing for ten new aircraft, along with options for ten more.

 

Biman Bangladesh Airlines is certified as safe to fly in Europe by the European Aviation Safety Agency. In addition, the airline successfully passed the IATA Operational Safety Auditand since then it has been successfully flying to some of its previous destinations in Asia and Europe.

 

Biman plans to fly the nation’s bi-coloured flag to greater heights, with great pride around the globe.

 

Biman Bangladesh Airlines, popularly known as Biman, is the national airlines of Bangladesh. Through a Presidential Order, Biman began its journey on January 04, 1972 as the national flag carrier of the war torn country. The day was less than a month after Bangladesh achieved independence through a bloody nine-month long liberation war. Biman is a unique airline, born with no aircraft. All it had-- 2400 trained manpower.

 

Biman operated its first domestic flight on 07 March, 1972 from Dhaka to Chattogram. Interestingly, before starting domestic operation, Biman operated its first international flight in London- Dhaka sector on 04 March 1972 with a chartered aircraft from British Caledonian.

 

Biman, a member of IATA, currently connects Bangladesh with 15 key cities around the world along with a well-knit domestic network of seven destinations with a fleet of 12 aircraft. Biman was incorporated as a Public Limited Company (PLC) in 2007. As a part of fleet modernization and as a part of the commitment to provide customers with highest standards of comfort and reliability, Biman contracted with Boeing Co. USA for 10 modern aircraft in 2008. Among these aircraft, four 777-300ER and two 737-800 have already joined the fleet. Four 787-8 Dreamliner aircraft will join the fleet in phases in 2018 and 2019.

 

Biman aims to ensure that its passengers’ in-flight experience is as enjoyable and as comfortable as possible. The influence of traditional Bengali hospitality can be the felt and noticed on each Biman flight through the personalized service and attention to detail, provided by dedicated and professional cabin staff.

 

Being the national flag carrier, Biman is proud to be the most prominent and conspicuous brand ambassador for Bangladesh. The tail insignia of the airline signifies its pride, the values and the ideals that the nation cherishes. Biman is committed to keep the honour of the nation high.

 

Immediately after the independence, Biman Bangladesh Airlines started its journey on 4th January 1972 with a DC-3 aircraft. After procuring two F-27s, Biman finally took-off on 7th March 1972 with domestic flights to Chittagong and Sylhet from its base at Dhaka. Shortly after, a Boeing 707 aircraft joined the airline’s fleet, allowing Biman to begin international flights. By end of the Seventies, Biman had a fleet of 8 F27 and 5 Boeing 707 to serve domestic and international destinations.

 

The Eighties was the new era of building Biman fleet with new Fokker 28-4000 in 1981, wide-bodied three DC10-30s joined in 1983, one new DC10-30 joined in 1989. In early 1990, Biman phased out its aging F27 and purchased two new ATPs to serve domestic and some regional destinations. In 1996 Biman also purchased two new Airbus 310-300 from Airbus Company and phased out its ATPs in 2004.

 

In order to modernize Biman fleet with new generation aircraft, Biman signed two agreements with Boeing in April and May 2008 for purchasing new generation 4 X 777-300ER, 4 X 787-8 and 2 X 737-800 aircraft. Four 777-300ER aircraft joined Biman fleet in October/November 2011, February 2014 and 21 March 2014. Two 737-800s aircraft joined Biman fleet in November/December 2015. Three Boeing 787-8 aircraft joined Biman fleet in August/December 2018 and August 2019. On 16 May 2019, 5th Boeing 737-800 arrives to join Biman fleet. 6th Boeing 737-800 arrives to join Biman fleet in June 30, 2019. Fourth new 787-8 aircraft delivered by Boeing on September 2019. Currently Biman is operating 07 domestic and 16 international destinations.

 

Biman is in a bid to operate more domestic destinations, as such procuring two Turbo-Prop aircraft. Biman has already phased out vintage F28 and DC10-30 aircraft from its fleet as a part of fleet modernization. The airline operates its own ancillary and maintenance facilities at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport.
