Today, Starlink is active on more than 400 United mainline and United Express<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> aircraft, and the carrier expects to outfit its entire fleet before the end of 2027.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;United is adding Starlink to more aircraft than any other airline in the world and teaming up with DIRECTV is a way for us to give customers a glimpse into the future of inflight entertainment with live sports and do it during one of the world&#8217;s most popular sporting events,&#8221; said Andrew Nocella, United&#8217;s Chief Commercial Officer. &#8220;Our journey started nearly a decade ago with a decision to install screens in every seat. We already have more than 160,000 screens\u00a0across our fleet, with plans to basically double that number soon via new deliveries and retrofits.\u00a0But just having static screens with On Demand content was never our end game. The real customer benefit happens when those screens are dynamic and offer real-time, streaming content just like your phone. That&#8217;s where the combination of Starlink&#8217;s reliable and fast connectivity and DIRECTV IN FLIGHT live TV is a game-changer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This initiative uses the &#8220;Viasat Live TV&#8221;\u00a0and &#8220;Thales 360&#8221; web-enabled applications to tap into live TV content and present it to customer&#8217;s seatback screens; streamed to the aircraft using Starlink connectivity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"prntac\">\n        <b>About United<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>At United,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edge.prnewswire.com\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4717045-1&amp;h=114418559&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D4128452-1%26h%3D2092392587%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.united.com%252Fen%252Fus%252Ffly%252Fcompany%252Fbrand%252Fgood-leads-the-way.html%26a%3DGood%2BLeads%2BThe%2BWay&amp;a=Good+Leads+The+Way\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Good Leads The Way<\/a>.
