Aer Lingus has upgraded its transatlantic fleet with free Starlink broadband access. The service offers up to 500Mbs gate to gate. The upgrade provides a substantial improvement over previous wifi, which was often slow or non-existent even when paid for.
Aer Lingus previously offered wifi when most European airlines had none. The upgrade to Starlink provides faster broadband access across the transatlantic fleet.
The upgrade may increase video calls on flights. Passengers may use noise-cancelling headphones during flights.
