Air France next to choose Starlink

https://onemileatatime.com/news/air-france-free-starlink-wi-fi/

This may again be shrugged off, but Air France is now the 2nd Viasat aviation customer to signal a full fleet move to Starlink. Let’s see if this gets minimised as inconsequential. How about “it’s ok they swapping out the Viasat planes before we install them, so no revenue loss and no problem” ? Who is next to dump Viasat GEO for Starlink?

They sold the bonds. No need to say anything more for a while.

Expect lots of shrugging off. Just like United, this press release states StarLink will be for all their planes. I bet Gooroo has another vomitous email queued up saying this doesn't affect Viasat installs. I can be ok with losing market share and pivoting to recapture. I am not ok with management lying to us.
