SpaceX’s Starlink is bringing high-speed satellite internet to the skies, marking a significant milestone by debuting on a Qatar Airways Boeing 777 flight from Doha to London.

This new in-flight Wi-Fi service, powered by Starlink, allows passengers to stay connected seamlessly during long-haul flights.

With speeds fast enough for streaming and video calls, Starlink promises to revolutionize in-flight connectivity.

Qatar Airways plans to offer this service across its entire fleet by 2025, giving passengers free access to reliable internet.

This move highlights the growing integration of cutting-edge satellite technology in aviation, improving passenger experiences.

By incorporating Starlink, Qatar Airways leads the charge in offering passengers a truly connected experience, transforming how travellers use Wi-Fi in the air, especially on the world’s largest and longest-range aircraft like the Boeing 777.
