Despite massive increases in the prices of flights between Britain and Bangladesh, the range of flight choice is set to triple after a new deal between the two governments.

Flights will now run between any UK airport and anywhere in Bangladesh. This is a huge change from the present system which only sees flights between London Heathrow or Manchester and Dhaka. In addition to the economic and consumer benefits for both countries, it is especially positive news for the UK's thriving Bangladeshi.

The increase in flights sees services between the UK and Bangladesh rise from 10 to a massive 31. Airlines will now cover direct flights from the UK to Bangladeshi cities such as Chittagong and Sylhet in the northeast of Bangladesh which both have strong communities in Britain.

Travellers currently have no other choice but to make tenuous journeys from the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka, so the recent increase in airlines routes provides an exceptionally welcome change.
