Biman Bangladesh Airlines has suspended 74 flights out of 142 on 10 routes to some middle-eastern countries, India, Malaysia and Singapore.

Confirming the matter to The Business Standard, Biman Managing Director Mokabbir Hossain said, the flights have been cancelled due to passenger crisis and restrictions imposed for coronavirus outbreak.

The routes are from Dhaka to Kuala Lumpur, Kathmandu, Kolkata, Delhi, Bangkok, Singapore, Kuwait, Doha, Jeddah and Medina.

As deadly coronavirus already spread to 102 countries, many countries have banned travelers from coronavirus affected countries to minimise the risk of spread of the novel coronavirus.

Qatar and Maldives today banned arrival from Bangladesh after three persons were found infected with coronavirus here on Sunday.
