Check the Socials on how Delta is getting raked over the coals on this. Frequent flyers, the people that matter most, like Starlink because it works right now. I have faith Amazon can pull this off and it will be great for us in 2-3 years. However Delta would have been better off just inking the deal and silently installing LEO without an announcement. Our internet now is not bad - it is way better than it used to be to be and United customers repeatedly complain about their lack of service. How did someone in Marketing think it was a good idea to announce this now when it won’t be available for 2 years in a best case scenario? Announce it when it is closer and a proven technology. The public perception is now Delta is way behind United - which probably isn’t true.
