The airline is the largest and first carrier in the MENA region to offer passengers Starlink ultra-high-speed, low-latency internet. Starlink is free to all passengers and operates from gate to gate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The national carrier of the State of Qatar is also set to exceed its initial target of three Starlink-equipped aircraft by introducing 12 Boeing 777-300s upgraded with this innovative service by the end of 2024. Qatar Airways has further committed to rolling out the technology on its entire Boeing 777 fleet in 2025 \u2013 one year ahead of schedule \u2013 with the Airbus A350 fleet following in the summer of 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This significant move highlights Qatar Airways\u2019 commitment to bridging the gap between the skies and the ground by offering ultra-high-speed, low-latency internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Engineered by SpaceX, Starlink is the world&#8217;s first and largest satellite constellation using a low Earth orbit that willprovide passengers reliable, high-speed internet so they can stay connected with friends and family, stream their favourite entertainment, watch live sports, play online games, or work efficiently at 35,000 feet \u2013 all for free and with a simple \u2018one-click-access\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Qatar Airways\u2019 Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer, said<\/strong>: \u201cWe are thrilled to launch our first Starlink-equipped flight, proving once again why Qatar Airways is at the forefront of the aviation industry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis milestone, paired with our commitment to rapidly roll-out Starlink across our entire modern fleet, demonstrates our relentless pursuit of offering passengers an in-flight experience that transcends the constraints of traditional air travel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBy providing Starlink reliable, seamless internet on board, we are connecting people to the things they love the most even at 35,000 feet, making every journey with us a memorable one.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Leveraging advanced satellites with its deep experience with both spacecraft and on-orbit operations, Starlink delivers internet access around the world, including over oceans and other remote locations previously unreachable by traditional cell or Wi-Fi signals. \u201cOvertime you&#8217;ll find it just gets better and better. This is the minimum and it only gets better from here,\u201d said SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the launch of its first Starlink-equipped flight, Qatar Airways has achieved several industry-firsts, including:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>World\u2019s first Starlink equipped Boeing Widebody 777<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>First Starlink on Qatar Airways passenger aircraft<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>First Starlink equipped passenger aircraft in the MENA region<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>First Starlink Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for a Boeing aircraft<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Largest passenger aircraft equipped with Starlink<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Longest range Starlink equipped passenger aircraft\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the first-ever service of its kind in the MENA region, the collaboration with Starlink, the world\u2019s largest satellite internet constellation engineered and operated by SpaceX, marks a new milestone for the national carrier of the State of Qatar. This strategic initiative will further elevate the airline\u2019s unparalleled on-board experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This press release, along with accompanying multimedia files, was dispatched directly from the first Starlink-equipped flight at 35,000 feet. The Starlink-equipped aircraft will operate on select routes as the airline pushes forward its roll-out plans. This will ensure more passengers have seamless access to enhanced connectivity during their travels, elevating the Qatar Airways\u2019 award-winning on-board experience to new heights and setting a new benchmark for in-flight excellence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The World\u2019s Best Airline soars ahead of its competitors with ambitious plans to roll-out
