Lufthansa Group Partners with Starlink to Introduce High-Speed Internet Across All Airlines

The Lufthansa Group is strengthening its premium customer experience through a new collaboration with Starlink. From 2026 onwards, the Group plans to equip its entire fleet of around 850 aircraft with high-speed broadband internet, covering both existing aircraft and all future deliveries. The initiative will make Lufthansa Group the largest airline group in Europe to deploy Starlink technology across its fleet.

High-speed connectivity across all travel classes

The new onboard internet solution is based on satellite technology and enables an in-flight online experience comparable to that on the ground. Higher bandwidth and increased speeds will allow passengers to stream content, work in cloud-based environments and use other data-intensive applications during flights. The service will be available across all travel classes and will be offered free of charge to all status customers and Travel ID users throughout the Lufthansa Group airlines.

Investment in premium experience and innovation

The partnership with Starlink forms part of the Lufthansa Group’s broader investment programme in new aircraft as well as product and service innovations along the entire travel chain. With this move, the Group underlines its ambition to set new standards in onboard connectivity and digital comfort for travelers.

“In our anniversary year, in which we are celebrating Lufthansa’s 100th birthday, we have decided to introduce a new high-speed internet solution from Starlink for all our airlines,” said Dieter Vranckx, Chief Commercial Officer of the Lufthansa Group. “The Lufthansa Group is taking the next step and setting an essential milestone for the premium travel experience of our customers. Connectivity on board plays an important role today, and with Starlink, we are not only investing in the best product on the market, but also in the satisfaction of our passengers.”

Rollout starting in 2026

The gradual introduction of Starlink connectivity on Lufthansa Group aircraft is scheduled to begin as early as the second half of 2026. By 2029, the entire fleet is expected to be equipped with the new broadband service. Further details regarding the rollout and onboard experience will be announced over the course of the year.
