Wizz Air to roll out Starlink across fleet from 2027

Wizz Air will begin rolling out Starlink in-flight internet across its fleet in 2027, extending the low-Earth orbit connectivity system across the European ultra-low-cost carrier’s aircraft network. The airline said new-generation Wizz Air aircraft are expected to be fitted with the technology.

The move gives Wizz Air a fleet-wide Wi-Fi plan centred on Starlink satellite connectivity, with installations due to start next year. The airline has not disclosed the technical rollout schedule, retrofit scope or financing terms in the available reports.

Wizz Air joins a growing number of airlines turning to Starlink for onboard internet, as carriers look to improve passenger connectivity on short-haul and price-sensitive routes. The latest reporting describes the airline as the latest to sign up with Starlink and says the scheme will cover the full fleet.
