Five major Korean carriers just locked in a massive Starlink deal—Korean Air, Asiana Airlines, Jin Air, Air Busan, and Air Seoul are rolling out satellite internet across their entire fleets. This marks the first nationwide airline adoption in South Korea.



Here's the timeline: installations kick off this year, with passenger-facing service going live around Q3 2026. They're aiming for complete fleet coverage by 2027.

What's interesting? This isn't an isolated move. Starlink's footprint in commercial aviation is exploding globally—more carriers are betting big on satellite connectivity as the new standard for in-flight experience. The shift from traditional systems to low-earth orbit networks is accelerating faster than most anticipated.

ngl Starlink is really making waves in the aviation industry. All five major Korean airlines are joining in on this wave, and by 2027 it’ll have full coverage... I just want to know how the internet speed is—hopefully it’s not as slow and laggy as it is on the ground.
