Adviser Bashir Uddin Appointed Chairman of Biman’s Board of Directors
Adviser Bashir Uddin has been appointed as the new Chairman of the Board of Directors of Biman Bangladesh Airlines, the country’s national flag carrier. The decision was officially announced this week, marking a new chapter in Biman’s leadership structure.
Bashir Uddin, who has long served in advisory and leadership roles, is expected to bring strategic guidance at a time when Biman is undergoing major transformations. The airline has been focusing on modernizing its fleet, improving service quality, and expanding international routes to strengthen its position in the competitive aviation sector.
Biman Bangladesh Airlines currently operates a mix of Boeing 787 Dreamliners, 777s, and narrow-body aircraft, serving destinations across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. However, the carrier has also faced challenges in recent years, including operational delays, financial strain, and rising competition from international airlines.
Industry observers believe that under Bashir Uddin’s chairmanship, Biman will prioritize efficiency, customer service, and global competitiveness. His appointment is seen as part of a broader effort to boost the airline’s brand reputation and ensure sustainable growth in the aviation market.
The new chairman is expected to work closely with the Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism and other stakeholders to align Biman’s strategic vision with Bangladesh’s growing demand for safe, reliable, and affordable air travel.
