The disclosure was made at the airline\u2019s Annual General Meeting held on December 30, 2025, where the income and expenditure accounts for the previous fiscal year were presented, Biman said in a press release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting was chaired by Chairman of Biman\u2019s Board of Directors Sheikh Bashir Uddin and attended by board members and representatives of shareholder ministries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During FY 2024\u201325, Biman recorded a total revenue of Tk 11,559 crore, reflecting a 9.46 percent increase compared to the previous fiscal year. The airline also achieved an operational profit of Tk 1,602 crore, while its net profit rose by 178 percent year-on-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the same fiscal year, Biman operated 21 aircraft to 30 domestic and international destinations, transporting a total of 3.383 million passengers, one percent higher than the previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biman Bangladesh Airlines, a fully self-financed state-owned enterprise, has not received any government subsidy over the past 54 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In January 2025, the airline recorded the highest ticket sales in its history, reflecting growing passenger confidence and market acceptance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officials said fleet modernization, expansion of profitable international routes, improved in-flight services, faster baggage delivery, and modernization of airport processes contributed to enhanced passenger satisfaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Strict adherence to international safety standards has also helped the airline maintain a strong safety record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under the new management framework of the interim government, improved financial discipline, efficient resource allocation, and strengthened internal control mechanisms played a significant role in achieving the record profit, officials added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looking ahead, Biman plans to expand routes to new destinations, accelerate digital transformation in passenger services and operations, and further strengthen its cargo services, with the goal of emerging as a leading airline in South Asia, said the release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
