Flying from Sharjah to Dhaka
In short
Several airlines fly nonstop from Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) to Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka (DAC): Air Arabia, US-Bangla Airlines and Biman Bangladesh Airlines. The 3,521 km flight takes about 4 hours 55 minutes. For Bangladeshis living in Sharjah or Ajman, the airport is usually a shorter drive than Dubai's main one.
Air Arabia's 26 weekly flights and its A320 family
Air Arabia dominates the route with about 26 flights a week on G9510, G9512, G9514, G9518 and G9571. It uses a mix from the Airbus A320 family, the A320, the larger A321 and the A320neo; its A320 seats 168, all economy. US-Bangla flies BS346 daily, and Biman flies BG152 once a week on a Boeing 737-800 with 162 seats. The US-Bangla aircraft is not named in the listing, so check your booking before choosing a seat.
One terminal at Sharjah International
Sharjah International is about 13 km from Sharjah city. It has a single passenger terminal, so all the airlines check in under the same roof. Air Arabia is based at the airport and runs its headquarters on site.
Gulf time is two hours behind Dhaka
Gulf Standard Time is UTC+4 and Bangladesh runs on UTC+6, with no summer change in either. Add two hours to the flight time when telling relatives when you will come out of arrivals.
Flights to Chattogram and Sylhet instead
Biman also flies from Sharjah to Chattogram and Sylhet, and Air Arabia serves Chattogram. Flying straight to the city nearest your family saves a domestic connection or a long road trip after landing in Dhaka.
Older terminal arrivals and Terminal 3 dates
International arrivals come through the ground floor of the older Terminal 1 and 2 building in Kurmitola, north Dhaka. Terminal 3 was still being completed in 2026; its soft opening is scheduled for 16 December 2026 and full operations for March or April 2027.
Uttara is right beside the airport to the north. For Gulshan or Banani, book Uber, Pathao, Obhai or Shohoz, or use the prepaid taxi counter at the international exit so the fare is fixed in advance.
Domestic flights to Sylhet, Chattogram and other cities leave from a separate single-storey building next to the international terminal. Collect checked bags and pass customs, then walk over and check in again; on separate tickets, leave several hours.
Bangladeshi citizens need nothing more than their passport. Foreign residents of the UAE should check the rules for their own passport, since entry depends on nationality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Getting there
Usually, yes. Sharjah International is about 13 km from Sharjah city and for most people in Ajman it is a shorter drive than Dubai's main airport. With several nonstop airlines to choose from, you rarely need to cross into Dubai at all.
Biman and US-Bangla tie at 30 kg in the hold. Air Arabia shows 20 kg for this sector. All of them cap the cabin bag at 7 kg, so for gift-heavy trips home the Bangladeshi carriers usually work out better, unless Air Arabia's fare plus paid extra weight still comes in lower.
It is one of three nonstops and matches Biman's 30 kg checked allowance, which makes it attractive for anyone carrying a lot home. The route listing does not name its aircraft, so check the details on your booking before choosing a seat.
Sharjah has a single passenger terminal, so Air Arabia, Biman and US-Bangla all check in under the same roof. Air Arabia is based at the airport and runs its headquarters on site.
Uttara is right beside the airport to the north, a short ride away. For Gulshan or Banani, book Uber, Pathao, Obhai or Shohoz, or use the prepaid taxi counter at the international exit so the fare is fixed in advance.
The domestic terminal is a separate single-storey building next to the international one. Collect your checked bags and pass customs first, then walk over and check in again. On separate tickets, leave several hours in case the flight from the UAE lands late.
General
A mix from the Airbus A320 family: the A320, the larger A321 and the A320neo, depending on the departure. Its A320 seats 168, all in economy. Biman's Boeing 737-800 on the same sector has 162 seats.
Yes. Biman flies from Sharjah to both Chattogram and Sylhet, and Air Arabia also serves Chattogram. Flying straight to the city nearest your family saves a domestic connection or a long road journey after landing in Dhaka.
Entry depends on the passport you hold rather than where you live. Check Bangladesh's current rules with an official source before booking. Bangladeshi citizens show only their passport at immigration.
Booking
Two hours. Gulf Standard Time in the UAE is UTC+4 and Bangladesh runs on UTC+6; neither moves its clocks in summer. Add that gap to the flight time of just under five hours when telling relatives at home when you will come out of arrivals.
Timing & weather
International arrivals still come through the ground floor of the older Terminal 1 and 2 building. Terminal 3 was still being completed in 2026; its soft opening is scheduled for 16 December 2026 and full operations for March or April 2027.
