Singapore Airlines selects Starlink for Airbus A380 and A350 passengers

Singapore Airlines (SIA) will introduce Starlink Wi-Fi for passengers travelling on its Airbus A380 and A350-900 long-haul aircraft from 2027.

On May 4, 2026, the serial Skytrax World’s Best Airline winner announced it would introduce Starlink’s low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite‑based broadband service across its Airbus fleet.

The first Singapore Airlines customers will be able to begin accessing onboard Starlink in the first quarter of 2027, with completion of the project scheduled by the end of 2029.

“Fast, seamless connectivity is, today, an essential part of the travel experience. Singapore Airlines already offers the world’s most comprehensive complimentary in-flight Wi-Fi across our entire fleet. Starlink will take this to the next level by delivering next-generation high-speed connectivity, enabling customers to stay entertained, connected, and productive throughout their journey, with a smoother and seamless experience from take-off to landing,” said Yeoh Phee Teik, Senior Vice President Customer Experience, Singapore Airlines.

“We are excited to bring Starlink on board Singapore Airlines. Customers and crew will soon experience seamless, low-latency connectivity as they travel. Whether flying long-haul or ultra-long-haul distances, Starlink is redefining what is possible for leisure and business travelers alike – making every flight more enjoyable and infinitely more connected,” said Jason Fritch, Vice President of Starlink Enterprise Sales, SpaceX.

Other airline that committed to adopting Starlink on board their aircraft include Emirates, British Airways, United Airlines, Virgin Atlantic, Southwest Airlines and Lufthansa.
