In September 2024, Air France announced plans to introduce free high speed Wi-Fi throughout its fleet, reinforcing its position as Europe’s most premium global airline (along with all of its other product investments).
Late in the summer of 2025, the SkyTeam carrier started its Starlink rollout. I’d like to take an updated look at how this project is going, because Air France has done a really impressive job rolling this out, and is really showing competitors (especially British Airways) how it’s done.
Starlink is becoming increasingly popular with airlines. So far we’ve seen carriers like American Airlines, Aer Lingus, airBaltic, Air New Zealand, Alaska Airlines, British Airways, Copa, Emirates, Gulf Air, Hawaiian Airlines, Iberia, Korean Air, Lufthansa Group, Qatar Airways, SAS, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines, Virgin Atlantic, and WestJet, all announce plans to install the service.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
