British Airways Signs Major Agreement with Starlink to Provide Free Wi-Fi to all Customers

British Airways has announced the signing of a major deal with Starlink to provide every guest in every cabin free and fast Wi-Fi that delivers an experience that ‘feels like home’ aloft.  This is just the latest investment as part of the airline’s £7bn transformation journey.

On Thursday (November6, 2025), British Airways announced the progressive rollout of free, reliable and lightning-fast Starlink Wi-Fi connectivity from 2026.  All guests will soon be able to enjoy complimentary gate-to-gate, super-fast Wi-Fi, allowing them to stream video, work and remain connected on multiple devices.  This is just the latest initiative in the airline’s £7bn transformation program, and follows the launch of a brand-new lounge concept in Miami and Dubai, delivery of over 35 new aircraft, and the introduction of leading-edge AI technology to enhance on-time performance.


In Thursday’s announcement, British Airways’ Chairman and CEO, Sean Doyle, said,


“We’re continuing to focus on transforming our customer experience. Launching Starlink on both our long-haul and short-haul aircraft is game-changing for us and our customers, elevating their experience on board our flights by offering them seamless connectivity from gate-to-gate. Especially on short-haul, this will really differentiate us from our competitors.


“With our new Wi-Fi powered by Starlink, our customers will be able to enjoy lightning-fast, low-lag internet from the moment they board to the moment they land - even over oceans and remote regions. It’s Wi-Fi that feels like home, even at 38,000 feet.” 


Powered by the world’s most advanced satellite constellation that orbits much closer to Earth than those used traditionally, Starlink is a revolutionary Wi-Fi provider.  British Airways will start rolling out Starlink in 2026.  Once fully fitted, all customers, whichever cabin they’re traveling in, will enjoy fast, free connectivity.
