Qatar Airways is the latest carrier to switch its in-flight Wi-Fi to Starlink — and celebrated the milestone with a call with Elon Musk 35,000 feet in the air.

Qatar Airways operated its first flight equipped with Elon Musk’s Starlink from Doha to London on Tuesday. 

The carrier said it plans to introduce 12 more Boeing 777s equipped with Starlink by the end of the year. It also aims to have Starlink on its entire 777 fleet by 2025 and will start installing the satellite-based service on its Airbus A350s by the summer of 2025.
