TL;DR

American Airlines will outfit about 500 single-aisle jets with Starlink satellite Wi‑Fi starting in 2027, prioritizing new Airbus A321XLR and A321neo aircraft while older 737s keep the existing Viasat service; the rollout follows recent moves to offer free Wi‑Fi for many passengers and mirrors similar Starlink deployments across other U.S. carriers.
