The Biman Bangladesh Airlines is going to launch an app that will allow air passengers to buy tickets and have access to flight-related information, said a notice on the national flag carrier's website on Tuesday. 

By downloading the "Biman Bangladesh Airlines App" on their smartphones, passengers will be able to purchase tickets for all the destinations and pay fares through mobile banking services like bKash or Rocket. 

They will also be able to pay using credit or debit cards like Visa, Mastercard, Amex and Nexus. 

The app will be available for download in the Google Play Store and Apple's App Store to get access to information on Biman's services from anywhere. 

Using this app, air travellers will be able to avail information on flights, flight status, flight schedule, sales centres, online ticketing and refund help and ticket booking.

The passengers can also create a profile with the app to check the reservation status.
