Rajshahi flights resume today

Shah Makhdum Airport in Rajshahi is resuming operations on the domestic route to Dhaka from today.

US-Bangla and Novoair are resuming four flights each while Bangladesh Biman is still suspending its operations, said airport manager Setafur Rahman.

"We've taken necessary preparations to manage the flights smoothly," he said.

US-Bangla has two flights in the morning and two others in the afternoon between Dhaka and Rajshahi. Similarly, Novoair has four flights.

Biman has not resumed operations since March 14.

The Rajshahi airport was closed on March 27. It was not resuming due to a lack of a medical expert.

The civil aviation authorities decided to resume the airport after Rajshahi civil surgeon appointed a medical assistant to ensure health rules at the airport.
