JetBlue has signed with Amazon's Project Kuiper as a provider of satellite broadband Wi-Fi for the carrier, the first carrier globally to sign with the network, JetBlue announced.
The carrier said it would begin introducing Project Kuiper technology on a portion of its fleet in 2027. Amazon began full-scale deployment of the satellites for the network in April and expects to begin delivering the service to customers later this year, according to Amazon.
JetBlue already offers free high-speed Wi-Fi across its fleet, and Amazon's service is "an exciting leap forward for us as the hands-down leader in onboard connectivity," JetBlue president Marty St. George said in a statement.
