Md Minhazul Islam
Airlines Commercial Professional · Aviation IT & Data Analyst
About Me
Raised in Rajshahi, Bangladesh, I hold an MBA and BBA in Finance & Banking from the University of Rajshahi. My professional journey began in IT as a MIS Associate, where I discovered the power of data in driving business decisions. That passion for data and systems led me to aviation — an industry where I could blend technology with strategy, and where I found my true calling.
Today, I bring over 13+ years of progressive experience in airline commercial operations, spanning both full-service and low-cost carriers. My expertise includes Sales & Marketing, Route Development, Pricing, Revenue Management, Distribution, GSA Management, and Market Strategy — all supported by a data-driven mindset and hands-on leadership.
One of my most rewarding roles was with Air China, where I successfully launched and scaled the Dhaka–Beijing (DAC–PEK) route. Within just five months (by November 2024), the route turned profitable, achieving 80%+ average load factor with 74% of sales from Dhaka POS. I built and led a cross-functional team across Sales, Marketing, Reservations, and Finance — delivering high-impact results in a highly competitive market.
💡 What sets me apart: A rare mix of commercial acumen and tech fluency, backed by a passion for unlocking growth through smart pricing, strategic distribution, and operational efficiency.
🌍 Open to relocation and new challenges in global aviation markets. Let's connect if you're looking for a result-oriented airline commercial leader who can build teams, grow routes, and drive revenue.
