Biman Bangladesh Airlines (IATA: BG, ICAO: BBC) is the national flag carrier of Bangladesh, founded in 1972. As a state-owned airline, it serves as a key link connecting Bangladesh to international markets while supporting domestic and regional travel across South Asia, the Middle East, and selected European destinations.
The airline operates from three main hubs: Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka (the primary hub), Shah Amanat International Airport in Chittagong, and Osmani International Airport in Sylhet. This multi-hub strategy enables Biman to serve both major population centers and secondary cities efficiently. The network spans approximately 30 destinations, balancing domestic routes with international services to the Gulf, South Asia, and Europe.
Biman's fleet comprises 19 aircraft across four families: the Boeing 737 and Bombardier DHC-8-400Q Dash 8 handle regional and domestic routes, while the widebody Boeing 777 and Boeing 787 support long-haul international services. The airline holds IATA operational safety certification and meets European Union Aviation Safety Agency standards, reflecting its commitment to safety and regulatory compliance.
