Dreamliner ‘Sonar Tori’ starts for Dhaka

Biman’s brand new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner ‘Sonar Tori’ has started its journey for Dhaka from Seattle, USA, reports UNB.

It left Boeing Everett Delivery Center at 12.30pm (local time) on Friday and is scheduled to land at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport by 4:00pm, UNB quoted a Biman press release to say.

Prime minister Sheikh Hasina has named the Dreamliner.

Biman’s first and second Dreamliner – ‘Akash Beena’ and ‘Hangsabalaka’ – arrived in August and December last year. The third one – ‘Gaangchil’ – arrived in July and the fourth one, ‘Rajhanso’, in September this year.
