Biman Bangladesh is close on a deal to buy ten Airbus A350s, Mahbub Ali, the country’s junior minister for civil aviation, told press agency Reuters. The state-owned airline operates a full Boeing fleet and some De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400s making it the first order with the French aircraft manufacturer.

Both Airbus and Biman Bangladesh declined to comment on the deal. It’s still unclear that the agreement will be concluded during the Paris Air Show.

Biman Bangladesh currently operates a mix of 16 Boeing aircraft (737-777-78) and five De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400.

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
