August 21, 2025

Starting in 2026, Alaska Airlines guests can enjoy Starlink Wi-Fi with ultra-fast speeds and lower latency – unlocking seamless access to live gaming, real-time messaging and high-quality streaming across multiple devices.

Alaska Airlines is set to bring fast, responsive and reliable Wi-Fi to its fleet starting in 2026, with all aircraft – regional, narrowbody and widebody – connected by 2027, alongside its Hawaiian Airlines Starlink-equipped aircraft.

Alaska Airlines will provide the most flights from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport offering end-to-end Starlink Wi-Fi and become the first US airline to operate Starlink-equipped long-haul flights from the city. Hawaiian Airlines’ was the first major airline to offer Starlink, making the service available in 2024.

“With Starlink already live on Hawaiian Airlines and installations starting this winter across Alaska’s fleet, we’re proud that we’ll offer the fastest, most reliable inflight internet in the skies – with gate-to-gate connectivity on nearly every aircraft across both airlines,” commented Ben Minicucci, CEO and President of Alaska Air Group.
