| Period | Season | Typical Fare Trend | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monsoon (off-peak) | June to September | Lowest fares of the year | Fewer medical and leisure travellers; airlines discount to fill seats |
| Shoulder season | October to November | Fares start climbing | Durga Puja and Diwali lift demand across Bangladesh to India routes generally |
| Peak season | December to February | Highest fares | Winter holidays, South Indian wedding season, and cooler Chennai weather draw more travellers |
| Festival peak | Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha | Sharp fare increase | Bangladeshi travellers book India trips around the Eid holidays; seats fill quickly |
| Regional festival | Pongal (mid-January) | Local fare bump | Tamil Nadu's harvest festival lifts demand into Chennai, which can tighten seats on connecting flights |
Note: Fares on this route move daily based on seat availability, how far ahead you book, and airline pricing policy, and they tend to climb sharply around Eid-ul-Fitr, Eid-ul-Adha, Pongal, and the December to February peak season. If you're travelling to Chennai for a medical appointment or another fixed date, book as early as you can. Always compare live fares on ShareTrip before booking to lock in the most accurate and up-to-date price.

Note: Checked baggage allowance varies widely across this route, from as little as 20 kg in Economy with IndiGo up to 35 kg with Air India, Singapore Airlines and Malaysia Airlines. If you're carrying more luggage, for a longer stay or medical treatment, for example, it's worth weighing a quicker non-stop flight with a lower allowance against a longer connecting flight that includes more free baggage. Some discounted fare types also carry no free checked baggage at all, so always check your specific fare conditions rather than relying on the figures above. With nine airlines now on this route, allowances and fees change often, so confirm the current policy directly with your airline before you fly.
Chennai is the capital of Tamil Nadu, sitting on the Coromandel Coast along the Bay of Bengal in southeastern India. Formerly known as Madras until it was officially renamed in 1996, the city is often called the 'Gateway to South India' and, thanks to its strong automobile manufacturing base, the 'Detroit of India'. Alongside its industrial base, it has grown into one of India's leading IT and healthcare hubs.
For Bangladeshi travellers, Chennai is best known as a medical tourism destination. India's Ministry of Tourism recorded around 482,000 Bangladeshi visitors travelling to India for medical purposes in 2024, roughly 52% of all of India's inbound medical tourists, and Chennai is consistently named among the top cities they travel to, largely thanks to multi-speciality hospitals such as Apollo Hospitals Chennai. Beyond hospitals, Chennai rewards a longer stay, with its beaches, temples, and strong Carnatic music and Bharatanatyam dance traditions all within easy reach of the centre.
Chennai International Airport is Tamil Nadu's main international gateway and the airport used for every Dhaka to Chennai flight, whether non-stop or via a connection. Operated by the Airports Authority of India, it is one of the country's busiest airports and the principal air link into South India.
Located in Tirusulam, around 21 km southwest of Chennai city centre, the airport opened in 1930, making it one of India's oldest airports, originally known as Madras Airport and later Meenambakkam Airport. It handled over 22 million passengers in the 2024–25 financial year across two runways, the primary one around 3,658 metres (12,000 feet) long, and is served by more than 30 airlines flying to over 60 destinations across around 20 countries.
The International Terminal handles all international flights, including the non-stop Dhaka to Chennai route, and has recently been expanded with an additional integrated terminal building. The Kamaraj Domestic Terminal handles onward domestic connections, useful if your trip continues elsewhere in India. The airport does not have a CAT-III landing system, so poor-weather delays are more likely during the November to December monsoon.
