Travellers flying within Bangladesh in 2026 are finding it harder to book a bargain seat, with domestic airfares on key routes now typically about Tk 1,000 higher than a year ago, according to published fare data and recent industry coverage. In practice, this means travellers in 2026 are shouldering a slightly heavier fiscal load each time they fly, helping explain why total domestic fares are now typically about Tk 1,000 higher on busy routes than they were in early 2025. The net effect is that the “new normal” price many travellers encounter at booking is around Tk 1,000 higher than they recall from recent years. Even when base fares appear only slightly higher, ancillary charges, surcharges and revised fees accumulate to create the Tk 1,000 jump many domestic passengers are now experiencing in 2026. For many passengers booking domestic flights in Bangladesh this year, paying roughly Tk 1,000 more than in the recent past has become a standard part of planning a trip.
