Your next flight to Hawaii might come with speedy in-flight internet access. CNBC reports Hawaiian Airlines has signed a deal to offer SpaceX's Starlink service aboard all its Transpacific flights.

Agreed. I've been on the waiting list for 9 months and the last notification I received is Starlink "MAY" be available in my area by the end of 2023.

A better use for Star Link would be for transmission of ADS-B information to the respective tracking facilities via the ground system while flying across the oceans. This would alleviate the Radar Altimeter problems as ADS-B has GPS data from the aircraft, and radar altimeter data would then be a backup system for the aircraft when in transitioning from en-route to airport tracking and guidance. This is a simplistic explanation.

Why is there always the "low latency" hype that only matters to multi-player gamers. What are the guaranteed data rates and availability metrics? Seems Starlink never publish those numbers.

I cancelled Stàrlink làst month after waiting almost 2 (?) Years for my kit. A local cable company upgraded their system ànd reached out to me to offer 200 Gbyte service for $70 a month. No reason to hold out for Starlink, now!
