United Airlines says in-flight Wi-Fi through Starlink will eventually be available on all United flights on seat-back screens and personal devices.

United Airlines said a faster rollout on its planes will allow for "game-changing" in-flight experiences such as streaming services, shopping and gaming.

The first mainline jet will be outfitted before the end of 2025. But only members of the carrier's loyalty program will get the service free, United said in a statement.

United is testing connectivity using Starlink satellites next month, with the first commercial flight taking off this spring.

United Airlines said on Sunday that a high-speed technology is coming to its passengers earlier than planned after announcing the deal back in September.

United Airlines has a lot riding on plans to accelerate its rollout of Elon Musk's Starlink service on its planes.

The airline's partnership with SpaceX invites Starlink technology to its fleet, making Wi-Fi connectivity workable at 35,000 feet.

United Airlines plans to launch its first commercial flight with Starlink Wi-Fi this spring after accelerating its timeline for the new internet service, the company announced Sunday.  The carrier expects to have its entire two-cabin regional fleet outfitted with Starlink Wi-Fi by the end of the year.

Access will be free for all MileagePlus customers and includes inflight entertainment experiences like streaming services, shopping, gaming and more.

The airline and Musk launched the first Starlink-equipped Boeing 777 on a 22 October flight from Doha to London. Qatar Airways is the first airline in the Middle East to offer Starlink to passengers with internet that operates “from gate to gate”.

United plans to roll out its first Starlink-equipped plane as early as spring. It joins a handful of other airlines inking deals for Musk's WiFi.
