To be honest, I was on a flight a few months ago, paid like $15 for the entire duration of the flight (8 hours), and had a solid connection the entire time.
These kinds of videos always make me chuckle a bit. Everything was fine until he started talking about navigating around storms, etc. Clearly no research was done for that section. Aircraft already use sophisticated weather radars which depict storm intensity in real time so they can make fully informed decisions. In addition, the current wifi speeds onboard are already sufficient to allow pilots to look at weather products which depict the larger picture of storms along the flightpath. And when some flights are operated without wifi due to either not being equipped or deferring for later maintenance, more reliance is placed on airline dispatch to provide timely weather updates or suggested routing changes. So there is already a robust system in place and the new starlink internet won't provide such drastic changes as mentioned in the video, but will however provide more convenient access to one of the many layers that pilots use to make informed decisions.

Phones mess with frequencies. That is real
Just very unlikely to happen
The wings, the landing gear, theres so much wrong with this thumbnail.
The thumbnail is AI generated. Look at the landing gear
Yep even the wings
Goofy ass a350
Could this mean the elimination of in-flight entertainment screens and all the hardware they entail? I'm sure all that hardware is heavy.
Well luckly my local airline has starlink already (Hawaiian airlines)
WAIT WHAT 6:35 LOOK
United is adding starlink WiFi next 2025 (early 2025).
hmmm
Whoopdeedoo. Next he's trying to end democracy in America.
Or... read a book, look out the window, take a nap, chat with the person next to you, i.e., be the human God meant for us to be.
i not remember that need Wifi while a flight. 😊😊😊
Wifi = bad on plane look out window instead😊😊😊
