FlyDubai has made an exciting announcement, which will see the airline going from not offering Wi-Fi at all, to offering free, high speed Wi-Fi for everyone. Talk about a nice upgrade!
Presumably the newly ordered Airbus A321neos will also get Starlink Wi-Fi, but since there’s no firm delivery timeline, there’s not much to share there yet. Meanwhile the Boeing 787-9s on order aren’t mentioned in this announcement, oddly.
Starlink is known for its high-speed, low-latency broadband internet, and the service will be offered gate to gate. Starlink Wi-Fi will allow for live streaming, productivity similar to on the ground (with high upload and download speeds), gaming, e-commerce, and more.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
