Solo fliers are getting hit with higher fares — here’s how airlines are getting away with it Delta Air Lines has conducted tests of SpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet with an eye toward potentially offering the wireless service to its passengers in the future, the carrier’s top boss said this week. Delta CEO Ed Bastian said the airline has engaged in preliminary talks with SpaceX, the private space firm founded by billionaire Elon Musk. SpaceX is billing Starlink as a high-speed, low-cost internet service capable of providing access around the world. It’s unclear what form the tests took or how soon Starlink might roll out on Delta’s passenger planes. Bastian declined to discuss specific details about the tests, according to Wall Street Journal. Delta has previously called for expanded access to cheap, effective Wi-Fi service on flights. Delta representatives did not immediately return a request for comment on the matter.
