Virgin Atlantic Airways is in discussions with Wi-Fi providers including with Elon Musk’s Starlink to overhaul its onboard internet service by the end of the decade.

The UK longhaul carrier should make a decision on the provider in the next six to 12 months, Chief Executive Shai Weiss said on Thursday in an interview. There are about three viable options, including Starlink, Amazon.com Inc’s Project Kuiper and Viasat Inc., he said.
