The wireless internet is expected to be installed on select aircraft next year, Hawaiian said adding that both the companies are in the initial stages of implementing the service.

The carrier will equip its Airbus A330 and A321neo aircraft, as well as an incoming fleet of Boeing (NYSE:BA) 787-9s with Starlink’s satellite internet connectivity service, it added.

Hawaiian said it is not currently planning to deploy the service on its Boeing 717 aircraft that operate short flights between the Hawaiian Islands.
