United Uses Starlink to Poach Delta Fliers (businessinsider.com)

United Airlines is offering loyalty-status matches to Delta and American frequent fliers through October 15, touting its Starlink WiFi as faster than rivals'. United has Starlink on over 560 aircraft, about a third of its fleet, and aims to equip all planes by end of 2025. Delta, which chose Amazon's Leo service, plans to install it on 500 aircraft starting in 2028, and Elon Musk has publicly criticized Delta's decision.
