Biman flights on dammam-riyadh routes suspended until Nov 4

Biman Bangladesh Airlines has extended the period of suspension of flights on the Dhaka-Dammam and Dhaka-Riyadh routes until November 4 next in the context of ongoing attacks at Saudi Arabia’s airports. The organisation has informed that this decision has been taken in the interest of the safety of passengers.

Biman has informed in a notice on Sunday (October 25) that all flights from Dhaka to Dammam and Riyadh will remain suspended until November 4 next according to Bangladesh time. Subsequent decisions and revised schedules regarding these flights will be informed in due time.

The notice has said that for urgent needs passengers will be able to travel to Saudi Arabia using Jeddah and Madinah international airports. Considering the demand of passengers, two flights daily are being operated on the Dhaka-Jeddah route since October 16. This activity will also continue until November 4.

On the other hand, Biman Bangladesh Airlines is regularly operating flights with Boeing 787 aircraft on the Dhaka-Madinah route.

The authorities have requested passengers to contact the nearest Biman Bangladesh Airlines sales centre for information related to tickets and travel.
