United Airlines is installing Starlink WiFi on its fleet. Today, my flight from Indianapolis to Houston has Starlink. It is an absolute game changer. I had download speeds in excess of 250 Mbps, and upload speeds of nearly 30 Mbps.
When I have a flight, I deliberately schedule activities that do not require accessing the internet, as connectivity may be slow or non-existent. But now with Starlink, I can do anything in the air that I could do on the ground. Indeed, it should be possible to listen to Zoom calls, aided by closed captioning.
