The airline expects to begin testing Starlink in February with the first commercial flight anticipated in the spring on a United Embraer E-175 aircraft, used for regional flights. United plans to outfit its entire two-cabin regional fleet, about 200 planes, with the service by the end of 2025.
And United anticipates seeing its first Starlink-connected mainline aircraft take off before the end of the year.
United Airlines passengers could have access to Starlink-enabled Wi-Fi as soon as this spring.
The company first announced a deal inked with Elon Musk’s Starlink in September, promising customers that it would offer “fast, reliable Wi-Fi service” on its mainline and regional aircraft fleet for free.
On Sunday, the company said it had accelerated its planned timeline. Testing is set to begin next month, followed by a rollout that will have United’s two-cabin regional fleet outfitted with Starlink and the first Starlink-enabled plane flying on major routes before the end of the year. United said it will eventually add Starlink to its entire fleet.
