Windstar to launch Starlink cruise ship Wi-Fi across fleet

Friday, 14 Feb, 2023 0

Windstar Cruises has stated Starlink Maritime cruise ship Wi-Fi connectivity.

Windstar Cruises debuted the new Wi-Fi technology on Star Pride during a recent Caribbean voyage and plans to implement Starlink across most of its global fleet by mid-2023.

Star Legend will offer the cruise ship Wi-Fi service this spring, followed by Wind SurfWind Star and Star Breeze.

Wind Spirit will activate it as it’s available in French Polynesia.

Currently, all Windstar Cruises use geostationary satellite service, Anuvu, for internet services.

The addition of Starlink technology will amplify Anuvu, delivering more reliable and faster internet.

Starlink is the largest low Earth orbit satellite constellation.

Gregg Wagner, technology director, Windstar Cruises said, “When the ships are inside the service area, faster speeds will alleviate much of the frustration felt at peak use times.”

” The addition of high-speed internet service will enable guests to stay connected to family and friends.”

Starlink will be available on select Windstar voyages where the service is active.

Not all global destinations are available yet.
