Flight operations at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka were severely disrupted on Sunday due to adverse weather conditions. Continuous rainfall since early morning forced at least two international flights to divert to Sylhet and Kolkata. More than fifty arrivals and departures were delayed beyond their scheduled times, according to airport authorities.
Airport sources confirmed that a US-Bangla Airlines flight from Dubai landed at Sylhet’s Osmani International Airport, while a China Southern Airlines flight from Guangzhou was diverted to Kolkata’s Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport. Flights from Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Dubai, Madinah, Syedpur, Jeddah, Chattogram, and Kuala Lumpur also faced delays as aircraft circled in the air before landing.
Officials said heavy overnight rain, reduced visibility, and strong winds created operational challenges, prompting safety-driven diversions and rescheduling. The disruptions caused significant inconvenience for passengers waiting at Dhaka airport as delayed international arrivals affected overall flight management.
