Frontier is rolling out Starlink Wi-Fi across its entire fleet by early 2027, joining United and American in the satellite internet race for faster in-flight connectivity. Despite rising fares, demand remains strong as United reports a solid Q2 profit, fueled by premium travel and cargo growth. Internationally, United cuts flights from San Francisco to Adelaide and Paris, while Virgin Atlantic tempers its London routes—though Frontier adds a new LA-to-Detroit route in November. And in a major shift, the U.S. may lift the ban on supersonic flights over land, thanks to new tech that could silence sonic booms, opening the door to faster, quieter supersonic travel.
