Airport guides, starting with Dhaka
bookingMentor has full airport guides, from Dhaka's Hazrat Shahjalal International to hubs in Doha, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Beijing, Europe and the United States. In Dhaka, the new Terminal 3 is still not open to passengers in October 2026, so all flights use Terminals 1 and 2 and the domestic terminal.
Alongside the guides, travellers post their own scores and comments on airports of every size, from major international hubs to regional airports: check-in, security, lounges, dining, amenities and the overall passenger experience, combining firsthand traveller feedback with expert insight for airports such as Singapore, London, New York, Tokyo and Dubai.
The airport guides at a glance
The distance to the city centre is often the first thing to check, because it decides whether a taxi, a train or an airport hotel makes most sense. These are the distances given in each guide.
| Airport | Code | To the city centre |
|---|---|---|
| Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka | DAC | 17 km |
| Hamad International Airport, Doha | DOH | 15 km |
| Singapore Changi Airport | SIN | 24 km |
| Hong Kong International Airport | HKG | 35 km |
| Tokyo International (Haneda) Airport | HND | 15 km |
| Tokyo Narita Airport | NRT | 60 km |
| Beijing Capital International | PEK | 32 km |
| Beijing Daxing International Airport | PKX | 46 km |
| Amsterdam Airport Schiphol | AMS | 9 km |
| Zurich Airport | ZRH | 9 km |
| Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport | ATL | 16 km |
| Baltimore Washington Airport | BWI | 14 km |
Tokyo and Beijing each have two airports, and both have their own guide. Check which one your ticket names before you book a hotel, because Narita is four times further from central Tokyo than Haneda.
Dhaka's Terminal 3: where things stand
Terminal 3 at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport was built with Japanese assistance and had a ceremonial soft opening in October 2023, but it has not yet handled regular passenger flights. In August and September 2026, Bangladeshi newspapers reported that the Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh was negotiating with a Japanese consortium to run the terminal, with 16 December 2026 named as the target for a first, limited opening. Until an operator is signed and a date is confirmed, treat that as a plan rather than a promise.
For now, Terminals 1 and 2 and the domestic terminal stand next to each other and are linked by covered walkways, about 5 to 12 minutes on foot. Changing between a domestic and an international flight still means leaving and re-entering through screening, so allow at least 45 minutes.
From Dhaka airport into the city
Road traffic, not distance, sets the journey time in Dhaka. The guide puts a ride to Gulshan at 30 to 70 minutes and lists typical fares for each option.
- Ride-hailing apps: about ŕ§ł400 to ŕ§ł700 to Gulshan, from the marked pickup point, with surge pricing in rain and at the evening peak
- Official taxis from the counters in the arrivals hall: about ŕ§ł600 to ŕ§ł1,200; agree the fare or use the meter before you set off
- Metro Rail Line 6: no station at the airport, so take a short rickshaw or ride to Uttara North; the line runs to Motijheel in the daytime only
- City buses on Airport Road: the cheapest option, but crowded and with little room for luggage
If you would rather be met at arrivals at a fixed price, book a car with a driver before you fly.
Connecting through Doha, Singapore or Hong Kong
Most long trips from Bangladesh involve a change of plane at a hub, and the guides to Hamad, Changi and Hong Kong International cover transfers, lounges and transit hotels. On a single ticket your bags are normally checked through and you stay airside. On two separate tickets you may have to clear immigration to collect and re-check your bags, which needs a visa for that country if you would otherwise not need one. Build in extra time, and check the transit rules before you book a self-transfer.

Yes. Each guide lists hotels near the airport that can be booked on bookingMentor, with the starting price per night. The cards on this page also show how many hotels, car rentals and restaurants are listed around each airport, so you can see at a glance which guides have stays nearby.
Getting there
Each guide follows the same order, so you can jump straight to what you need:
- Quick answers on opening hours, distance to the city, Wi-Fi and 24-hour food
- Arrival and departure steps, from the aircraft door to the taxi rank and back
- Flights, routes and the airlines serving the airport
- A layover planner, places to sleep, lounges, food and facilities
- Transport into town, sightseeing nearby and safety advice
Where we have not yet checked a topic for an airport, the guide says so rather than guessing.
Guides have a Sleeping at the airport section that separates landside and airside spots and lists free rest zones, sleep pods, day rooms and transit hotels. Each option notes if you must pass immigration to reach it, which matters if you do not hold a visa for the country. At Singapore Changi Airport, for example, the airside transit hotels can be used without clearing immigration.
No. The departures and arrivals board is built from the flights listed on bookingMentor, not from a live airport feed. Check your flight status with your airline on the day you travel, and use the Search flights button on the guide to see fares for your own dates.
The transport section of each guide compares the ways into town, such as taxi, train or bus, with typical travel times. For Singapore Changi Airport, for instance, a taxi takes around 30 minutes and the MRT needs a change at Tanah Merah. If you would rather be met at arrivals, car hire with a driver can be booked on bookingMentor.
The Airlines and Flight routes sections of each guide list the carriers and direct routes, with aircraft and flight time where known. For airports in Bangladesh, this page also shows the airlines that fly from them, and each airline page covers baggage allowance and check-in.
Log in, open the airport's guide and choose Write a review. Add a star rating, a title, at least 100 characters about your visit, the month you were there and who you travelled with. Other travellers can mark reviews as Helpful, Interesting or Love it, which helps the most useful ones stand out.
Each guide shows the date it was last reviewed and is updated when airport rules or prices change. Shop and lounge hours, transport fares and terminal arrangements can still change at short notice, so check anything time-critical with the airport or your airline before you travel.
Post it through Ask a question in the guide's Q&A section, or contact our support team, which is available 24 hours a day on +880 1723 808 286 and at support@bookingmentor.com. Tell us the airport, the section and what has changed so the team can check it against the airport's own information.
General
Choose the length of your layover, from under three hours to overnight, then tell it if you are able to clear immigration and if your bags are checked through to your final destination. The planner then suggests how to use the time, drawing on that airport's own lounges, rest areas, transit hotels and nearby sights. If you have to collect and re-check your bags, it reminds you to allow at least an extra hour.
Stay & facilities
Open the airport's guide and use the Lounges, Essentials and Facilities sections. Essentials covers Wi-Fi, currency and time zone, and Facilities lists services such as ATMs, prayer rooms and medical help. Lounge access depends on your ticket, your airline or a lounge membership, so confirm it before you rely on it.
