Some time ago, Air Baltic announced that it would be upgrading its Airbus A220-300 fleet with Starlink WiFi services. The first soil tests have now been carried out in Riga.

“We are pleased to be leading the way in Europe by offering fast, unlimited and free in-flight connectivity on our flights. This first test brings good insights and brings us closer to our goal of improving our service for passengers traveling within the Air Baltic network in Europe and beyond,” said Managing Director Martin Gauss. “We are grateful to our partners at SpaceX's Starlink for their tireless support throughout this transformative journey. Their shared ambition and dedication perfectly complement Air Baltic's values. As we operate one of the most modern aircraft types on the market, it was the next logical step for Air Baltic to introduce the state-of-the-art Starlink internet solution on board this fleet.”
