The story

As of 2006, Air Bangladesh was banned from entering EU airspace. The reasons for this decision were safety deficiencies, as well as poor transparency of the airline's operations. the Commission assessed that Air Bangladesh should be submitted to a strict operational restriction.

Products and brands

Air Bangladesh (no relation to Biman Bangladesh Airlines) operated only one older jet aircraft, a Boeing 747-269B(SF) (registration S2-ADT). The aircraft was acquired by Air Bangladesh in August 2004 and was still painted in basic Kalitta Air colors.
