European LCC Wizz Air is to roll out Starlink connectivity across its fleet of A320 aircraft in 2027.
Wizz joins a growing list of European airlines that have ordered the technology. These include Air France, SAS, Virgin Atlantic, British Airways, Aer Lingus and Vueling. Latvia’s airBaltic allready has the technology working across much of the fleet.

“In 2027, we’re 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 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 at SpaceX.
