Dammam:Dhaka Biman Bangladesh Airlines has announced the suspension of flights from Dhaka to Dammam on October 23, 24, and 25, and all flights to Riyadh until October 31. This decision comes in the wake of security concerns following an attack on the King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
According to United News of Bangladesh, the national flag carrier made the decision to ensure passenger safety after an attack on the airport on Wednesday night and the ongoing airstrike situation.
Flights from Dhaka to Jeddah and Madinah will continue to operate as per their existing schedules. Passengers intending to travel to Dammam and Riyadh are advised to consider using Jeddah and Madinah international airports, subject to seat availability.
