Air France has begun rolling out its new Starlink-powered free Wi-Fi service across its fleet, with plans to have it available on all aircraft by the end of 2026, the carrier announced.
So far, Air France has two Embraer 190 and two Airbus A220 aircraft equipped with the high-speed Wi-Fi service and will equip one of its Airbus A350 aircraft with the service this week. By the end of this year, Air France expects to have it available in 30 percent of its fleet, with the full rollout—including regional aircraft—happening over the following year.
The service is free for customers in all cabins, according to Air France. They must log in to their Flying Blue loyalty account to access the service, and they will be able to create an account onboard if they do not yet have one, the carrier said.
Aircraft not yet equipped with the high-speed Wi-Fi will continue to offer an Internet connection option that lets Flying Blue members access messaging applications for free but using it for tasks beyond messaging requires a fee.
