The deal would take Biman Bangladesh Airlines' planned Boeing fleet to 25 aircraft, as France warns that Dhaka's stalled Airbus talks are a "test" of its commitment to Europe

AviationNews – Biman Bangladesh Airlines is preparing to finalize a significant acquisition of ten Airbus aircraft, comprising four A350-900 widebody jets and six A321neo narrowbody aircraft. Expected to be signed by August 31, 2026, this move marks a strategic shift toward establishing a sustainable, mixed-fleet operation alongside recent Boeing acquisitions. The European aerospace manufacturer recently submitted a revised proposal that reduces its original offer but perfectly aligns with the airline's updated capacity requirements.
