A Biman Bangladesh Airlines Boeing 777-300ER on short final to London Heathrow Airport in 2014.

Biman Bangladesh Airlines was established in January 1972 as the Bangladeshi flag carrier.[1] Operations started on 4 February 1972, initially on a domestic basis and using DC-3 equipment, with services radiating from Dhaka to Chittagong, Jessore and Sylhet.[2] International operations started on 4 March the same year, covering the London–Dhaka route on a charter basis under a sub-contract agreement with British Caledonian.[3] From 1 January 1973 the same route, serving Gatwick Airport, started being operated by Donaldson International Airways on Biman's behalf.[2] With a stopover in Bahrain, services to London in Biman's own right started on 19 June 1973,[4] initially with a leased Boeing 707.[5] By March 1975 (1975-03), the domestic route network comprised Chittagong, Comilla, Cox's Bazar, Ishurdi, Jessore, Sylhet and Thakurgaon and international services to Bangkok, Calcutta, Dubai, Kathmandu, and London were also provided.[6] Frankfurt was first served in 1986.[7]

The carrier's international network comprised 26 destinations in March 2005 (2005-03),[8] but in 2006 services to some of them were discontinued owing to financial problems, starting with New York City in August that year,[9] followed by Brussels, Frankfurt, Mumbai, Paris, Tokyo and Yangon.[10][11] Frankfurt was resumed in late March 2014 (2014-03);[12][13] the service proved economically unviable and the destination was again removed from the route network in October the same year.[14] Flights to Rome were suspended in April 2015 (2015-04).[15]

As of March 2015, the airline served 21 cities in 15 countries, across Asia and Europe.[16][17]
