Passengers flying from Guangzhou to Dhaka can upgrade to business class at the airport check-in counter for just RMB750 per leg. 

The route is served by Boeing 737-800 aircraft, which feature 12 business class seats. 

Upgrades are offered on a first-come, first-served basis and must be processed in person at the airport.

Passengers who successfully upgrade will receive a number of exclusive benefits:

  • Increased baggage allowance: two checked bags totaling 45kg and one 10kg carry-on (up from 35kg and 7kg in economy)

  • Priority check-in to minimize waiting time

  • Access to airport VIP lounges for a more relaxed pre-flight experience

  • Enhanced in-flight meals served in business class (subject to availability)

The upgrade service is available only for passengers departing from Guangzhou to Dhaka, and only when business class seats are available. 

Passengers can upgrade within the four-hour window before departure when check-in opens. 

Upgrades are non-transferable, non-refundable, and cannot be exchanged for cash.

Additional policies include:

  • No upgrade discounts for children

  • Passengers traveling with infants under two years old are ineligible

  • Frequent flyer points will be awarded according to the original economy class fare class

Established in 1972, Biman is the national carrier of Bangladesh. 

With over 50 years of history, the airline operates a fleet of 21 modern aircraft, primarily Boeing 737s and 787s. 

Its route network includes 22 international and 7 domestic destinations, serving both passenger and cargo routes across Asia and Europe.

This expanded flight schedule and new upgrade option reflect Biman’s continued efforts to enhance flexibility and service quality for its China–Bangladesh travelers.
