Bangladesh Announces Three Hajj Trip Packages

Bangladesh has published three government and private travel packages for this year’s Hajj pilgrimages, all of which have seen major price increases since the previous time the trip offers were given.

The government’s package-1 plan would cost Tk 527,340, package-2 will cost Tk 462,150, and the private Hajj package will cost Tk 456,530, according to State Minister for Religious Affairs Md Faridul Haque Khan.

The Cabinet approved the usage of Hajj packages on February 24, 2020. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, no pilgrims were able to make the journey that year.

At the time, three government packages were announced. Package-1 cost Tk 425,000, Package-2 cost Tk 360,000, and Package-3 cost Tk 315,000. The cost of private packages has been set at Tk 358,000.

According to him, this year’s Hajj pilgrimages would commence on July 9, subject to the sighting of the moon.

This year, 4,000 people will be able to travel through the government’s packages, while 53,585 will be able to make their own arrangements.

According to Shahadat Hossain Taslim, head of the Hajj Agencies Association of Bangladesh, or HAAB, details on the private package would be finalized and announced soon.

According to State Minister Faridul, privately operated Hajj agencies would be able to announce numerous packages in line with the government’s package-1 and package-2.
