Biman to start direct flights to Toronto on Mar 26

Biman Bangladesh Airlines will start operating direct flights from Dhaka to Toronto on Mar 26, the nation's Independence Day.

State Minister for Civil Aviation and Tourism Mahbub Ali said that no compromise would be accepted for the quality of services provided by Biman, the flag carrier of Bangladesh. "We want it to let us hold our heads high. In case of any complaint, you must let the authorities know and necessary measures will be taken."

Biman has also made progress in operating direct flights from Dhaka to New York and plans to fly direct from Dhaka to Japan's Narita.

"The coronavirus pandemic had stalled all these plans in the aviation sector. Biman will soon expand its network to other international destinations," the state minister said during the awards ceremony of Biman Half Marathon 2022 in Dhaka on Friday.
