Thinking of flying Biman ?



Thinking of flying Biman? Think again. This is a recent pic of a Biman plane obviously in a bit of a pickle. They had to close Dubai airport for 8 hours. I suppose that made Bangladesh Biman right on time.

Is it too much to ask to have a decent national carrier? Even though we have thousands of people travellng to desh every month the service seems to get more and more pants.
At least one bit of fresh air is the new airline Royal Bengal Airlines.

The only reason people ply is because of the luggage allwoance.
Why do we need so much allowance? (we recently sent 4 cases full of clothes back home with several people). I mean the only thing we normally get back for ourselves is a pair of batas and a songa of hotki ( Dried Fish ) so why do we need 2 tones of allowance.
All we do is cram out luggage with rubbish that we heva collected over the years from markets and the next sale.
But the irony is that the t-shirst that are made in desh are the very ones we take back for our realtives but end up paying a 500% mark up for.

I hope the new airline lives up to its hype and the people who are running it do not become compalcent or run off with peoples money.
