American Airlines

American Airlines will install Starlink Wi-Fi across more than 1,000 mainline aircraft starting in early 2027. The expanded program covers Airbus narrowbodies and Boeing narrowbody and widebody jets, giving American a major new connectivity upgrade as United expands Starlink and Delta prepares its Amazon Leo rollout.

A federal judge has allowed Neel Elsherif’s injury claim against American Airlines to continue after she alleged that a male passenger engaged in a sexual act beside her for about an hour on Flight 198 from New York to Milan. The court dismissed her separate claim for compensation over the move from premium economy to coach but left the central injury dispute unresolved.
