United Airlines has started rolling out Starlink Wi-Fi on its first aircraft, offering fast and reliable internet to passengers at no extra cost. The first Starlink-equipped plane is already in service, with the rest of the fleet set to follow.
Passengers with a free MileagePlus membership will be able to use Starlink for free, allowing them to stream, browse, and game without restrictions, just as they would at home. There’s no longer a need to download content before takeoff, as travelers can watch live TV, stream the latest episodes of their favorite shows, and even play live games while in the air.
The new Wi-Fi service is also expected to improve productivity for those who need to work mid-flight. Passengers will be able to shop online, book reservations, and download important documents without waiting to land. In addition, real-time travel updates will be available on the seatback screen, providing information on connecting flights, baggage status, and more.
United’s goal is to make high-speed inflight internet the new standard, and with Starlink’s rollout across its fleet, passengers can expect a more seamless travel experience.
