THE COLLABORATION

What to know
and where to go.

Qatar Airways reports 150 Starlink-equipped widebody aircraft, including its first Boeing 787-9 installation.

The August 20, 2026 update says the Boeing 787-8 subfleet is complete and the remaining 787 installations are expected by the end of 2026. Starlink service began in October 2024: this is a fleet milestone for an existing partnership, not a new August 2026 agreement. Complimentary access requires membership authentication or enrolment. Aircraft substitutions and local regulations can affect availability, including gate-to-gate use at certain airports. The official graphic reflects the airline’s figures at announcement, not a continuously updated fleet total.

Availability
Available on equipped aircraft; 150 widebodies reported August 20. Remaining 787 rollout planned through end-2026; flight-level eligibility varies.
