American Airlines will install SpaceX's Starlink internet service on over 500 narrow-body Airbus aircraft starting early next year, marking a significant contract win for Starlink ahead of SpaceX's IPO. This deal strengthens Starlink's position against competitors like Amazon Leo and Viasat by expanding its presence in the airline industry. The upgrade applies to American's Airbus A321XLR and A320neo planes, but not its Boeing fleet. This contract adds momentum to SpaceX's only revenue-generating unit as it prepares for what is expected to be the largest IPO in history.
