Wizz Air brings connectivity onboard with Starlink
Wizz Air will roll out Starlink from 2027
Wizz Air has announced plans to roll out Starlink connectivity across its fleet in 2027. With this milestone, Wizz Air will bring high-quality onboard connectivity to the ultra-low-cost segment in Europe.
"Ultra-low-cost travel has always been about making opportunities accessible to more people," said Ian Malin, Chief Commercial Officer, Wizz Air. "In 2027, we are taking that philosophy into the space era. Our customers shouldn't have to choose between affordable fares and reliable internet onboard to stay connected to the people, work, and moments that matter most. We're proud to lead that change by collaborating with Starlink to bring maximum benefit to Wizz Air! Let’s WIZZ!"
Beginning in 2027, installations will roll out and flight time goes from downtime to connected time. Passengers can enjoy high-speed, reliable, low-latency internet at 30,000 feet and every new generation Wizz Air aircraft is expected to be Starlink-equipped, ensuring a consistent onboard experience regardless of route or destination.
“We are thrilled to bring Starlink onboard Wizz Air and transform the travel experience for millions of its customers. Keeping passengers and crew seamlessly connected at 30,000 feet is exactly what this technology was built to do. We look forward to delivering reliable, high-speed internet from departure to arrival,” said Jason Fritch, Vice President of Starlink Enterprise Sales, SpaceX.
