Biman Bangladesh Airlines
Guys,
Im researching flights to Dhaka (and beyond) from LHR for the end of the year. Ive found some possible flights that allow me to fly on some of their older types (trying to avoid the Portugal-reg 777 if i can). Does anyone have access to their route timetables, aircraft types to be used on them, and any advice for booking flights?
Ive attempted to contact their UK branch, with no response and i cant book multi domestic sectors otherwise
thanks

In was in DAC a few weeks ago and saw a number of Biman DC10. They have at least three DC10 still operating. They tend to fly in the region on short/medium haul flights.

Gosh.are Biman still operating those DC10's? I remember those birds when I lived in Dhaka in 1984, and they weren't very new then, ex-SIA if I recall.
In those days I mainly flew around the region on Biman's 707's, ex-PanAm I think. One had a double engine failure on the same side shortly after take-off from DAC and came screaming over our residential area at tree top height, or so it seemed at the time. Had a few folks at the Club duck their heads for sure.
