Biman Bangladesh Airlines has announced of not taking any Abu Dhabi employment visa holders as the Abu Dhabi authorities are not currently accepting the passengers with employment visa.

For this reason, instead of six flights a week, Biman will operate two flights till August 31 on the Dhaka-Abu Dhabi-Dhaka route, says a Biman press release sent by the Deputy General Manager (Public Relations) of Biman, Tahera Khandaker on Tuesday.

If Abu Dhabi authorities agree to accept employment visas in the future, the airline will add more flights, the statement further said.

Earlier, Biman decided to resume the flights Dubai and Abu Dhabi destinations from July 6 and 7 respectively, but on July 5, the national carrier amended its decision and suspended all scheduled flights to UAE showing unavoidable reasons.
