After being closed for two years, the Hajj flights from Bangladesh will resume this year. However, various agencies and stakeholders are concerned that only Biman Bangladesh Airlines and Saudia, Saudi Arabia's national carrier, are permitted to operate the flights, causing potential prices to rise due to monopolisation.
The hajj of many Bangladeshi pilgrims has become uncertain after the cancellation of at least 15 Biman flights in the last two weeks.
