The UA codeshares with LH also qualify as UA & LH revenue share. So you could fly IAD-FRA-CCU in great LH C (flat, but angled bed with AVOD) and then take an adventure flight CCU-DAC with Biman or IA.

Going through BKK would be the cheapest option and will also minimize your time in regional C since BKK-DAC is only about a 2 hour flight. The only caveat is, that you will have to spend the night in BKK due to the connection times which in my book is an advantage.
