Seabourn equips ships with next generation SpaceX Starlink wi-fi

Seabourn is the latest line to complete the installation of next generation wi-fi connectivity via Elon Musk’s SpaceX Starlink satellite technology across its fleet.

Starlink is now available on the luxury line’s two new purpose-built ultra-luxury expedition ships, Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit, as well as ocean ships Seabourn Sojourn, Seabourn Quest, Seabourn Encore and Seabourn Ovation.

The upgraded technology claims to provide passengers with faster service, greater connectivity and more reliable wi-fi wherever Starlink’s services are available.

Seabourn president Natalya Leahy said: “Following the positive feedback we received from our guests from the successful rollout of Starlink’s enhanced connectivity on our expedition ships, we are thrilled to share that both our ocean and expedition ships in our ultra-luxury fleet now feature Starlink. 

“Our guests can now choose to connect or disconnect as they wish during their extraordinary journeys with Seabourn. 

“Whether exploring the polar regions, cruising the Mediterranean, or navigating across the oceans, our guests can now enjoy an even more dependable connection when they are sailing with us.”

Technology vice president Kathleen Erickson added: “We are so proud to provide a high level of enhanced technology for our guests who want to stay connected, whether it’s sharing their personal experiences with friends and family or staying connected with work.”
