Hawaiian Airlines launches Starlink Wi-Fi on Airbus fleet
Passengers enjoying free inflight Wi-Fi
Hawaiian Airlines has announced it is now offering Starlink’s inflight Wi-Fi free of charge to passengers onboard all Airbus-operated flights between the islands and the continental U.S, Asia and Oceania.
Hawaiian, which became the first major U.S. carrier to debut Starlink in February on its A321neo aircraft, has now completed Starlink installation across its 24 A330 fleet.
Passengers can easily connect to Starlink the moment they board the aircraft and experience the internet at speeds suitable for working, streaming video and gaming.
“Becoming the first major airline to offer travellers Starlink at no cost is a remarkable achievement for our team, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the overwhelmingly positive response from guests who have been enjoying our industry-leading connectivity onboard,” said Evan Nomura, Director of Inflight Entertainment and Connectivity and Onboard Products at Hawaiian Airlines.
Hawaiian will also install Starlink on its flagship 787-9 fleet. The carrier does not plan to deploy the service on its 717 aircraft, which is used for short flights between the islands.
