MV Karnafuly Express has appeared in earlier Saint Martin seasons, but past operations do not confirm a current sailing. Verify the vessel name and date on the issued ticket.
MV Karnafuly Express: current verification checklist
Operating route
Confirm the actual departure and arrival terminal for the selected date.
Vessel identity
Match the ship name on the quotation, ticket and boarding instruction.
Seat or cabin
Ask for capacity, deck, washroom access and the number of passengers covered.
Schedule source
Use a dated operator or authority notice, not an undated image from an earlier season.
Current answer: this page does not claim that MV Karnafuly Express is operating in 2026-27 until a current sailing notice is verified.
Latest official rule we can cite
The 22 October 2025 Bangladesh Gazette required Saint Martin tickets to be bought through a Bangladesh Tourism Board-recognised web portal with a Travel Pass and QR code. For that season it allowed day visits in November, overnight stays in December and January, limited average daily visitors to 2,000 and stopped tourist travel in February. Those were season-specific instructions—not a promise for 2026-27.
