The "upcoming" is doing a lot of work. There is not currently a viable alternative to Starlink with the same capability, speed, or latency. Amazon Leo will be the next to go online and it won't be fully operational until sometime in 2028. No one in the aviation industry will want to wait for that.


Delta and JetBlue appear to be waiting for Amazon Leo, and it seems to be coming online in 2027, not 2028.
