    Us over here in Singapore owe the Bangladesh people many thanks for helping build our public housing and other infrastructure that keeps our little island going. ❤ I find they’re such avgeeks too, lots of love for their flag carrier Biman and they love planespotting! This video is gonna do much better than you can imagine.

It looks like it's getting lots better and I'm excited to see the improvements! Heads up that the H in "Sylhet" is not pronounced -- you could even say "shill-ETT" if you wanted, since in Bangla there are 3 different letters pronounced "sh" -- and the emphasis in "Dhaka" is on the first syllable. :) I'm off to watch your other Biman videos for some deshi nostalgia!

    Nice to see you finally made a TR on Biman. I hope you enjoyed the flight. Issues with blankets are pretty normal, maybe that's on demand. I saw the same thing in Turkish Airlines economy class while flying from Istanbul to Chicago, they didn't provide any blankets. I don't know whether you have flown to one of their Dash 8 but if not then do so next time. Also suggesting to make TR on the following services of Biman
    1) Dhaka to Kathmandu or vice versa (VV)
    2) Dhaka to Singapore or Kuala Lumpur or VV
    3) Dhaka to any middle eastern destination or VV. Make sure you get a Boeing 777 here.
    4) And offcourse the Toronto flight. Hope you will get an overall idea about Biman.
    Enjoy your upcoming journeys.

  • @markinboy
    @markinboy Рік тому +9

    Great and honest review. Not that you should have had to, but did you not ask for a blanket?
    No alcohol service for beverages means Biman isn't trying to diversify its passenger base. Biman remains for Bangladeshi passengers with just a handful of other passengers onboard if any. But new aircrafts and mostly non-stop flights make Biman relatively attractive for mostly Bangladeshi passengers (no food or language issues).
    After some terrible management issues of the past, the airline is trying to turn a corner. But we have been disappointed many times before. I will be flying in one of Biman's 787-8s from Manchester to Dhaka (via the pit stop at Sylhet) in a few weeks' time.
    Note: A second hot meal service (breakfast or supper) in a 10 hour flight is fast disappearing amongst European and North American carriers. Biman must maintain its edge here. Lots of Biman food means lots of Biman passengers.

    We need more direct routes from Bangladesh to European countries like France, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands and even Italy. At one point, there were routes from Dhaka to New York, Dhaka to Tokyo and even Dhaka to Athens.
    Doesn't have to be Biman operating those routes. It would be better if Dhaka gets airlines like Lufthansa, KLM, Qantas, Air France, ANA etc.
    I don't know why they discontinued those routes as they would help the country but quite a lot.
    Let's hope when HSIA T3 is fully operational, new routes come or continue the discontinued ones.

      Biman is a traditional full-service airline with a long history, long-haul service, a modern fleet, AND the national flag carrier of one of the world's most populous countries. So, I don't see why it's "non-mainstream". It might not be as famous as Lufthansa or Emirates, its service may be limited in the number of destinations, and its home base may be located in a largely underdeveloped country out of the itinerary of the majority of international tourists and businesspeople, but still, there's nothing out of the ordinary, marginal, or outlandish in Biman to place it out of the mainstream. Plus, as we saw in this video, its service may not be spectacular, but it's still better than what I've seen in recent Lufthansa reviews.

    Biman is going great on its Toronto-Dhaka route. Actually the best from North America to South Asia. This has been talked about by paxs and employees alike. Biman Bangladesh has set the standard 👏🏻 🇧🇩💯

    For flying direct to Sylhet Biman now charges extortionate rates. Before you could travel for £600-£700 a few years ago, now a economy seat costs £1,240 - £1,450. They are always late, then get fined by Heathrow Airport as a result they pass it on to their passengers. Their prices are also extremely high because they got no competition. As a result a lot of people are not able to fly. So, now they charge business class prices for economy. Btw, someone usually comes around with blankets in the evening or some time after take-off, dont know why you didnt get one 😏
    Not all the food is edible, specially the round tea-time fritter-like snacks which can give you stomach ache and make you run

    I still think Biman has a competitive edge over other airlines in London - Dhaka route as this is a Direct flight (with stop - and no need to offboard) but for other airlines you will need to take transit which might take a longer time.

    Thank you for featuring Biman in brutally honest segment.Felix is quite lucky since a huge number of passengers flying between LHR-ZYL are super unruly,loud and they try their very best to make the aircraft a junkyard,there were reports of vandalism by passengers on this route despite Biman's effort to give a better service compared to what it was literally 10 years back.
    Biman should include more contents especially western ones in their ife system since they are now flying YYZ and has plans to fly to JFK.
    For flights between LHR-DAC Gulf air certainly has an edge not only over Biman but also over Emirates (accept for the ICE)thanks to it's relatively modern product which Emirates T7s which fly to Dhaka doesn't offer.
    Looking forward to the opinion of yours regarding other Bangladeshi carriers.
