Air France is set to introduce free, lightning-fast Wi-Fi powered by Starlink satellites to its passengers, starting in September 2025. This move aims to make flying more connected and enjoyable for everyone, but there are some things to keep in mind before you start planning your in-flight Netflix binge.
Picture this: you’re cruising from Paris to Hamburg in September 2025, and you actually have Wi-Fi that feels like home—no laggy videos, no dropped connections. Air France is rolling out Starlink-powered satellite internet (yes, the fancy Elon Musk one!) for free on all its flights, kicking off on September 1, 2025. The plan is ambitious: 30% of their planes will have it by the end of 2025, with every aircraft connected by 2026.
Having solid, fast Wi-Fi could definitely shake up what travelers expect from airlines. It’s a big win for business travelers who want to keep working and for anyone who wants to stay connected mid-air. This could even influence which airline you choose for your next adventure.
