He urged interested users to talk directly to airlines about adding the internet option. Time to find the nearest suggestion box, or, more realistically, digital forms like this one from United. Musk didn't specify which airlines the space company was already talking to about installing the service.
Musk also hyped up Starlink, claiming it will provide low latency and "half gigabit connectivity in the air!"
He didn't mention pricing. Most in-flight WiFi plans charge a fee for access.
