Alaska Airlines has announced plans to install Starlink Wi-Fi on its entire fleet, making high-speed internet available at no cost to Atmos Rewards members. The rollout is set to begin in December, with the airline aiming to complete installation across all aircraft by early 2027.
This move follows Alaska Air Group’s acquisition of Hawaiian Airlines last year. Hawaiian was the first U.S. airline to offer Starlink connectivity and has already equipped many of its planes with the service. The new initiative will see Alaska-branded jets, including recently acquired Hawaiian Airlines Boeing 787s that will be repainted next year, outfitted with Starlink technology.
"Alaska's Wi-Fi upgrade comes after parent company Alaska Air Group last year acquired Hawaiian, which has already installed Starlink on many of its planes. (In fact, Hawaiian was the first U.S. carrier to equip planes with Starlink connectivity.)"
