thanks to the airline’s commitment to order fifty MAX 8s, Airbus seems to have done the same with Biman Bangladesh Airlines. French President Emmanuel Macron said on Monday after a meeting with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina that the airline has committed to buying ten A350-900s.
Once confirmed, the order would mean a renewal of the relationship between Airbus and Biman. The airline operates two A330-200s leased from Wamos Air in 2017 and February 2018. Between June 2006 and September 2016, the Biman Bangladesh had a fleet of six A310s, of which half was leased.
Reports about an Airbus order emerged this spring, after an adviser to the country’s Prime Minister signed a comprehensive with the UK. This included potential traffic rights but also access to the UK Export Credit Facility to finance up to ten A350s, including two A350F freighters.
