Air Bangladesh was an airline based in Bangladesh. It was founded in 2000 and dissolved in 2005.[1]

History

As of 2006, Air Bangladesh was banned from entering EU airspace. The reasons for this decision were safety deficiencies, as well as poor transparency of the airline's operations.[2] the Commission assessed that Air Bangladesh should be submitted to a strict operational restriction.[3]
