Biman’s 35-aircraft plan faces financing and approval questions

Biman’s plan comprises 25 Boeing and 10 Airbus aircraft, including four A350-900s and six A321neos, with deliveries expected from 2031. Agreements were signed before a fleet, route and financing assessment due in February 2027; reported arrears above Tk 7,000 crore and an intended government guarantee intensify funding and taxpayer-exposure concerns.
