El Al to install Starlink on its planes: Free high-speed internet expected to begin next year

El Al has announced plans to integrate Starlink satellite internet service on its aircraft starting in 2027. The service is expected to provide free browsing, streaming, and remote work capabilities during flights, subject to terms of use. The airline did not specify which aircraft or routes will be equipped first, nor provide a precise timeline for completion. This move is part of a broader upgrade to the flight experience, including new personal entertainment systems, replacement of pillows and blankets, Jo Malone London amenity kits in premium classes, menu changes, and an updated app with a travel mode. Additionally, an AI-based service representative named 'Ella' will be introduced.
