From 2026, British Airways will start rolling out free Starlink Wi-Fi across its mainline fleet.
The Wi-Fi will be made available to passengers in all cabin classes, offering them gate-to-gate connectivity for streaming and working on multiple devices.
This is the latest investment to be announced as part of British Airways’ £7 billion (R159 billion) transformation plan that has delivered improvements across onboard services, global lounges, food and drink options, check-in, boarding and customer care.
“We’re continuing to focus on transforming our customer experience. Launching Starlink on both our long-haul and short-haul aircraft is game-changing for us and our customers, elevating their experience on board our flights by offering them seamless connectivity from gate-to-gate. Especially on short-haul, this will really differentiate us from our competitors,” said Sean Doyle, British Airways’ Chairman and Chief Executive.
