“A VVIP chartered flight of Biman Bangladesh Airlines carrying the premier and her entourage members reached the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport via Helsinki, the Finish capital, at 11.15pm,” Prime Minister’s Press Secretary Ihsanul Karim told.

After a brief stopover in Helsinki, the flight departed the Helsinki-Vantaa International Airport at 10:55am (local time) for Dhaka.

The prime minister reached New York to attend the 76th UNGA on September 19 after a two-day stopover in Helsinki.
