Mumbai: Bangladesh's leading private carrier, GMG Airlines, is looking to increase its current number of flights and destinations into India. It currently operates daily flights to Kolkata and is set to start flying into Delhi thrice a week.
Under the recent review of bi-laterals by respective countries, the DGCA has now allowed Bangladesh's carriers daily frequencies to seven metros and unlimited flights to eighteen tourism destinations. According to GMG Airlines managing director, Shahad Sattar, the carrier plans to fly to all seven metros and has an eventual target of at least 100 frequencies within two years. GMG will target leisure and medical tourism, business as well as student travel, all of which are on the rise on the outbound front in India.
