Elon Musk's Starlink is gaining popularity across airlines. Here are ways to check if your plane has it.

From United Airlines and Emirates to British Airways and Air New Zealand, Elon Musk's Starlink is gaining popularity across global airlines.

Business Insider previously tested Starlink on Qatar Airways' first flight with Starlink in October 2024. The connection speed peaked at 215 megabits per second, more than enough for a lag-free video call, and faster than many cable-based internet services.

Starlink has competition: Carriers like JetBlue Airways and Delta Air Lines have signed up for Amazon Leo, which works similarly and has launched about 400 satellites.

There are ways to find out whether your next flight is equipped with Starlink. For most airlines, passengers are notified during the booking process, in pre-flight communications, or via the app.

Although not associated with Musk or the carriers, there are free online tools, such as Starlink Flights, that can be helpful.

Travelers can use aviation tracking tools like FlightRadar24 to find their flight's tail number and cross-check it. Still, aircraft swaps and data inaccuracies mean these tools should be treated as helpful guides rather than guarantees.

Here are all the airlines that have publicly announced plans to launch Starlink.

The Irish flag carrier is part of International Airlines Group, which announced its Starlink deal in early November.

Latvia's airBaltic flies around Europe and the Middle East only using Airbus A220 jets. It was the first European airline to adopt Starlink in early 2025.

Air Busan is a budget carrier and a subsidiary of Asiana Airlines, which is merging with Korean Air. Korean Air announced in December that it's adding Starlink.

"Rollout schedules will vary by carrier, with the earliest service introduction expected as early as the third quarter of 2026," it added.
