No other flights before April 18 or June 30 will charge this nominal fare. That means regular flights will charge standard fare.

Other routes remain regular at standard charge.  But, Medina-Dhaka route bound dedicated Hajj flights will charge TK 20,500 for one-way trip and TK 42,000 for rountrip only for mentioned timeframe.

Although, this initiative is considered beneficial for Bangladeshi home comers before Eid, the facility will be temporary which many mainstream media of this country did not clarify.
