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.
Thank you from Bangladesh.
Thank you from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇸🇬❤
Thank you so much for your kind appreciation in a wonderful way ❤️, from Bangladesh 🇧🇩.
thankyou from bangladesh
Thanks for being positive and appreciating the hard labour
Thank you Bangladesh too for helping to build and maintained Singapore. I am in the healthcare line and i received many Bangladeshi vaia to come my clinic for treatment daily... They are the nicest patients and i made many good friends. Every Friday without fail i will provide some food for them. I got lots of thanks and smiles. All i want from them is to make dua for me and my clinic .. to help and give more to those in need regardless of race language or religion. Thank you
Assalamualaikum. Thank you from Bangladesh.
Thank you so much for your nice words towards us. I am a Bangladeshi living in the UK and I'm feeling proud of my brothers who are living in the Singapore. Lots of love. 💙
@@mannadiisyed259 waalaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh .. Ramadhan is approaching .. May Allah bless us all.. Aaaminn
lol singapore is developed due to singaporeans not beacuse of bangladesh. singapore is rich and developed due to hard work of singaporeans and bangaldesh is poor due to their own people.
@@riderchallenge4250 bangladesh is poor due to the violent exploitation of the west
I have been following your channel for years. Feels greatful to finally give a brutally honest review of my national carrer
Same! I couldn't believe it ❤️🇧🇩
Same 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Biman have improved tremendously since the introduction of the B787. Their previous service to Manchester with DC-10s was disasterous, often operating off-schedule due to technical reasons. It is now very reliable and as you observed, a pretty good product.
I love brutally honest. Being blind makes the trip report videos impossible to enjoy so I really appreciate the narrated videos!
As a Bangladeshi I have to say, Biman has improved a lot in the last several years though there are a lot of place for improvement.
Respect for *Bangladesh*. I'm like Bangladesh from Morocco 🇲🇦💚🇧🇩
I have flown them on their old B777 from London to Sylhet and returned to the UK on an A310 from Sylhet to Dhaka swapping to a 777 from Dhaka to London back in 2015. It was an overall pleasant experience and friendly staff. The fruit juice served at boarding on the domestic segment was delicious!
I have to say, Biman was far far better than I expected, excellent review David and Felix!
BIMAN BANGLADESH AIRLINES is a decent airlines I must say, there is a lot of room for improvement and it is high time for them to bring changes and do better
Biman looks quiet impressive to do a long haul journey. I hope Felix enjoyed his stay in Bangladesh. Btw the pronunciation of 'Hansa' in 'Raj-hansa' is the same as 'Luft-hansa'. :)
impressive lol,he said the food was neither tasty nor good quality is that what you call impressive ?
@@brownvoltaire2722 have you ever flown in Singapore airlines ? Their food is the worst i’ve ever tasted.
@@brownvoltaire2722 You can't Judge an airlines based on food. Biman also has another organisation called BFCC who are succesfully providing catering service for many others renowned Airlines operating from Bangladesh.
We also call vehicles 'Bahon' similar to german 'Bahn'
@@tariq_al_fahim170 Because both have the same Aryan roots
I love Bangladesh and it’s people. I flew there with Emirates from the UK.
Except for a good number of them are religious fanatics. Minorities are reducing by the day.
@@vinaymaheshwari3074 talk about india bro where the government is being governed by literal genociders, rioters, religious radicals and killers.
Minorities are being killed, burned and women are being raped everyday in India.
Even separatist movements like khalistan is being taken place being religious radicals have taken over the country
@@vinaymaheshwari3074 you are wrong. Come visit and see what is going on. You can not judge our country through watching some news. Believe me people here living together in harmony. Just bcz of some ppl in village area who do not belongs to any religion they did some conflicts. But people of my country are against of them. I know what you meant by this comment. You meant Muslims here are against of Hindu ppl. But that's not true bro.
@@vinaymaheshwari3074 Indian people are alwaysbad moutihing Bangladeshis, and Pakistanis. Focus on your own country please. Your government itself is a extremist group.
@@vinaymaheshwari3074 are you talking about hindutva of India?
Been waiting to see this for years. I'm so glad the waiting is over. Feels good to see the flag carrier of my nation.
Fantastic views of Heathrow airport from above. Binman Bangladesh looks like a great airline.👍😊🇮🇪🇧🇩
Not great, but okay if you have limited options.
Give Bangladesh a visit.
I tell you what,...food, or cabin interiors aside, Biman has some of the best pilots ! They do a lot of smooth 'Butter' landings....Iv seen quite a few.
this channel just got 10X better i have been subscribed for years i think and now i came back to take another look on how good it has gotten
Beautiful review of Biman Bangladesh Airlines, I am really impressed with the interiors of the aircraft and the service on board. Cheers from Mumbai India ❤️💜💚💜
I tried Biman from Toronto to Dhaka. IT WAS VERY GOOD. Plenty amount of food were given and blanket was given.
Interesting video. Although I do not see myself in that part of the world anytime soon, it is always a pleasure to see how these non-mainstream airlines operate. Keep up the good work.
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.
The best thing about Simply Aviation is that you fly on Economy class, and that's where bulk of the passengers travel. So it makes a whole lot of sense, unlike some other youtubers who only fly Business and First class (PS: Can I get a ❤ back I edited it from Simple to Simply and the like disappeared😭)
Good point Wasim - some YTers seem to just use YT as an excuse to fund luxury trips for themselves, so not a 'real world' experience at all. Felix and David provide a useful and honest service we can relate to here on Simply Aviation.
Binman Bangledish not bad at all when I used them, little known airline but great service
proud to be a sylheti. i love my Sylhet. i am from Dublin Ireland.
Thanks a lot for such a precise review of our national carrier. Biman has indeed came a long way over the years. As a Bangladeshi citizen, I'd pray that it'd continue to move towards success in future.
Really enjoyed this review, thank you! I spent some time in Bangladesh in the 00s and Biman was... not well-regarded, to say the least. 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!
That breakfast was still better than the one BA served me in the back on my last trans-Atlantic red-eye.
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.
I’ve been waiting for this for ages Thankyou 🇧🇩
Thanks for make this trip report. And im happy ☺️☺️☺️ to see you visit my city sylhet.Because i live in Sylhet.
Thank you simply aviation
Biman never had a crash, and our pilots are known for the smoothest of landings!
i dont think so. Some other private BD airlines did. But Biman never did.@equalitypeace1695
I love the airline and routes context at the beginning… thank you
Proud of our flagship carrier.. Biman came a long way from being bankrupt and now service quality is far better than any USA carrier.. 🇧🇩
Thank you for represent our country and flag carrier airlines🇧🇩🇧🇩
I love biman and always fly with them and their business class is top class.. i am travelling to bd next month and can’t wait ❤❤.
Very nice video thanks mate
Oh My Goodness me that was such an incredible video that take off from London Heathrow was amazing your Commentry was cool that's why we're love aviation!
Impressive Video!! When I was a kid , I also flew Biman Bangladesh Airlines from Singapore to Dhaka onboard their Boeing 737-800 plane
Also , do remember to check out my channel and my videos about airplanes as I am a big fan of them and do remember to subscribe to my channel and leave a like on my videos and comment
Welcome to Bangladesh 🇧🇩😊, lots of love and respect for you
Biman has improved a lot since my last flight almost two decades ago. Great review, thanks for your time and effort. Dhaka airport experience is a disappointment though, hopefully that will change for better with the 3rd terminal opening next year.
A unique aspect about Syhlet airport is that only the light aircraft gets remote stands which may not sound unique to some of you at first bit's the airside transfer buses they use they aren't the usual Cobus 3000 they're actually just minibuses like the things that do the school run.
I personally really liked the “expectation met” or “not met” pop up thing you had in older videos
Great video! As for feedback re this being filmed by Felix - I thought the footage he captured was just as good as we are used to :) the only thing I would say though, is at the beginning I found it somewhat confusing that Felix's footage was being narrated by David in the first person (e.g. "I ordered a vegetarian meal) when David wasn't actually there. Personally I'd find it a little clearer if David is narrating for him to use 3rd person "Felix ordered a vegetarian meal" etc. But that's only a minor issue - another excellent review as always!
Thank you for flying with our biman Bangladesh Airlines.
Thanks For covering Biman Bangladesh Airlines ❤️
I hope Biman will improve day by day.
Honestly saying... This is some quality content. I appreciate your efforts.
Love travelling via emirates to Bangladesh the only thing for me is with family don’t like stopping in Dhaka and then making a 6 hours car journey to sylhet which is why we just go for the biman London to sylhet.
Clicked on this video for biman Bangladesh.But amazed by top notch review of airlines in this channel
Subscribed!
Good review, impressed with the modern Boeing aircraft
Thnx a lot simply aviation
And lot's of love from Bangladeshi people.....
Nice to see Biman is doing well. Hope it returns to US someday
THAN YOU! FINALLY A BIMAN REVIEW! THANKS A LOT GUYS!
great video, as always, thank you very much ! 🙂
Love you Simply✈️Aviation.....
💙 Love from West Bengal,India.....
I Have Not Try Out Biman Bangladesh Airlines Yet .Great Work
Looking forward to the domestic reviews. Great trip report as always
Biman Bangladesh looks like an astoundingly good airline. That said, I love layovers. Probably I would choose any middle east airline just for the layover. Thanx for the video.
Finally in Bangladesh. Thanks and welcome!
Been waiting for this review 😍
Roots in Bangladesh, Im a Indian Bengali who has a special place for Bangladesh in my heart. Though I have never visited Bangladesh despite having relatives in Rajsahi, Dhaka and Khulna. Bangladesh is a really beautiful country
ভালোবাসা নিও বাংগালী বন্ধু💐💖
I really appreciate the commented videos.
So much more comfortable than reading along all the time.
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.
Our pride Biman Bangladesh Airlines 🇧🇩
David, nice to see you are using aerolopa: amazing seating maps !!!
Hey love your Channel so much and I’m happy to see this one kudos to you guys
Watching it from Sylhet 🇧🇩
Thank you.
Worth noting that their B787-9 business class has a 1-2-1 configuration. Biman also charge significantly more if you plan to get off at Sylhet especially since FlyDubai stopped their Dubai - Sylhet service back in 2019.
I used to hate that flight Dubai to Bangladesh the people on those flights were so annoying
thanks for showing your experience on traveling by Biman Bangladesh Airlines
As far as the filming by Felix...I could not tell any difference. Everything seemed just as high quality and great as normal to me :D
Yes, if he hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known any different!
i have been waiting for this episode for 4 years
I have been waiting for years for this review
14:50 Yes! But only if the layover is not long enough. Better, if I don't have to - disembark, aimlessly tour the airport, and embark again in another flight. 🙂
I have ,ove this vedio buddy! Welcome back.
Die "Brutally Honest" Reviews sind bei weitem die besten conent, die ihr anbietet.
Ich würde empfehlen, dieses Format weiter zu verfolgen.
FIRST!!! I LOVE YOUR VIDEOSSSS SO MUCH
You're third
@@heidirabenau511 The comments said 0
I enjoyed how you continued in this video to keep the viewer informed some of your videos. There’s no sound leaving if you were to wonder what to think in addition to see keep up the good work..
Your channel very informative explain very well thanks 👍
I think that Bengali is the 8th most spoken language on Earth being the language of Bangladesh and West Bengal plus it's also spoken in some other states of India around that area.
Bangla is the 3rd most spoken language in the world after Arabic & Mandarin Chinese.
It’s spoken in Bangladesh, West Bengal, Tripura, Lower Assam. It’s the 4th most spoken language in the world.
After English, Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish. It’s definitely has 300+ million speakers.
Yesss! Brutally Honest is back!!
FINALLY BIMAN!!!
nice and details explanation .love from bangladesh
I used to handle Biman DC10 and A310. Good old days.
I really enjoyed your review.. Thank you.
Love this already!
I’m 3 months late to this video, but I remember commenting like 5 years ago for you to fly Biman Bangladesh Airlines and finally you did! And yes Biman has improved alot with their new Boeing 787. I’m a Sylhetti and live in London and so Biman is a convenient flight
Do you think Sylhetis are Bengalis or do you think Sylheti is a language
@@rafiashraf2769 We Sylhettis are Bengalis and Sylhetti is a dialect of Bengali
Wow fantastic documentary. Thanks
I love it. I wish Felix would try the voice over next time
Thanks for travelling our country.
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.
Thanks for posting such a nice video coverage about your trip from London to Dhaka vis Syllet is really very nice. Nice presentation with your simple Enough language. Best of luck for your future projects and upcoming presentations. Regards.
I think, on the LHR - DAC route GulfAir is the best option. As I tried most of the other available options where I found Gulf has a wide variety of positive add-ons.
The last passenger operator of the DC10, which was retired in 2013 or 2014
Thank you for the vlog, really enjoyed watching it. Btw Biman does give out Blanket's and also as far as know and witnessed, they do also serve Alcohol.
How long ago did you witness Biman serving alcohol? In which cabin? Business or economy?
Love from Bangladesh ❤️🇧🇩
I was waiting for this video.
Hello there. Thanks for flying to Bangladesh by biman Bangladesh airlines. Just let you know our crew will supply the blanket after after serving dinner. Also if anyone ask them for a blanket iam sure they will offer you Evan before serving the meal. Thanks again for flying with biman Bangladesh airlines. I hope your journey was fantastic .and you are always welcome to Bangladesh ❤️
A few years back I flew Biman from Manchester to sylhet, my home town directly. The flight was pleasant. But luggage was lost. It took them two years to refund and only got a quarter of the compensation 😢... But the in-flight services were wonderful 😊.... thanks the video was of high quality
I suggest you to visit with economy class. As we most of the viewers can only travel in economy class mostly.thank you for visiting Bangladesh you are always welcome to our homeland
I love painting of Biman Bangladesh airlines!
Glad to see the broad range of special meal options.
But not many western choices, except for breakfast options.
It's great to see Biman progress from the ex SQ DC10-30 in SQ interior colours, however if you really want to see the best DC10-30 take of check out Biman departing Manchester. Stunning and turn up the volume! Great report here and thank you as always!
This is interesting. I love brutally honest❤
The last time I flew to Sylhet was on a DC-10
