Dhaka-Toronto Biman flight from Jul 27

The much-anticipated Biman Bangladesh Airlines service between Dhaka and Toronto will launch on July 27.

Biman changed the start date of the flight between Dhaka and Toronto multiple times before settling on July 27.

BG 305, a Biman aircraft on the Dhaka-Toronto route, will depart from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport on July 26 at 3:30pm (local time), according to sources at Biman.

The jet will land at Istanbul Airport for refueling after a journey of about 8 hours and 30 minutes, according to sources at Biman.

The flight will leave Istanbul after a one-hour layover and take around 11 hours to reach Toronto.

On the same day, in the late afternoon, a flight will depart Toronto for Dhaka. After traveling for around 16 hours, the direct flight will touch down at the airport in Dhaka.

On the Dhaka-Toronto route, a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner will be deployed.
