British Airways' Starlink Rollout Faces Delays Amid Hangar Shortage

British Airways is in the process of equipping its long-haul fleet with SpaceX's Starlink high-speed internet. The airline has set an ambitious goal to retrofit five aircraft within just nine weeks. However, this plan is being hampered by a significant shortage of available hangar space. This logistical constraint is creating challenges for British Airways Engineering, which is responsible for the installations. The first aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, has already been successfully fitted with the new technology.
