United equips over 635 planes with Starlink, aims to finish fleet by end‑2027

United Airlines has installed Starlink satellite internet on more than 635 aircraft, making the service available on almost half of its daily departures.

An average of over 250,000 passengers per day use the service on more than 2,500 Starlink‑equipped flights, and the airline is adding about 20 aircraft each week, with a total of 37.7 million passengers having flown on 538,000 Starlink‑equipped flights so far.

United has launched an online tracker that lets travelers check Starlink availability up to three days before departure, and expects the fleet conversion to be completed by the end of 2027.
