Dhaka / Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport

The sweet shop in the terminal is great. The bengali sweets they have are the best I've ever tasted.

This website is a great help for people are expecting someone to arrive as Dhaka airport doesn't allow anyone except passengers inside the airport ( only if u pay about TK1000) lolz.

I just back from Jeddah on last Monday and transit at HSIA airport, as we have around 6 hours transit time, we couldn't go anywhere instead mingle around the airport, enduring the mosquito bite is not a good things around this airport as it was stated as International airport.. One thing that I most regret is when the process of check in. That day I am having a bad flu/fever, I am a patient with Asthma Bronchitis problem, when they checking on me, they took my Vicks vaporax and another medical (liquid) but it was less then 20ml.. They even want to take my turbo haler. I told them not to take my turbo haler as it was my life support, if anything happen to me inside a plane how can I survive?? Only then they agreed not to take the turbo haler but still they took those two medicine. I was very upset! Inside the flight I was trembling all the way from Dhaka to Kuala Lumpur, I try to ask the cabin crew but they didn't have any oil to make me warm. It was a nightmare to me!! I will never going back to this airport again in the future!!!!!!!!

its no longer called Zia intl airport. it is now HSIA hazrat shahjalal intl airport. ICAO code changed to VGHS insted of VGZR
