Weekly output: Copa Airlines + Starlink, price TBD

After the previous week’s surplus of published work, this week had only one post under my byline.

7/7/2026: Another Airline Starts Flying With Starlink, But Many Passengers Will Have to Pay, PCMag

After all of the other writing I’ve done about inflight Starlink, Copa Airlines both inaugurating this connectivity and making many if not most passengers pay for it–at prices that the Panama-based carrier has yet to announce–was an obvious story for me to cover. Another advantage I brought to this post: Unlike most or maybe all current PCMag staffers and contributors, I’ve flown Copa–from Dulles to Panama City to Rio de Janeiro in 2023. then the reverse routing for the 2024 edition of that conference. I recall the lack of WiFi on those flights being a bit of a relief.
