Marella Cruises has rolled out Starlink across its fleet, an improved Wi-Fi connectivity and experience on board. Starlink is a division of SpaceX – the spacecraft manufacturer and satellite communication company founded by Elon Musk which provides internet services for residences and businesses, but also transportation providers including aviation and marine industries.

Covering large geographical areas, the enhanced internet connectivity is part of the cruise line’s continual mission to find new and innovative ways to improve the experience for both guests and crew while on board. The introduction of the cutting-edge technology will ensure guests and crew have a faster and more reliable method to stay connected with friends and family and share their memories while at sea.

Chris Hackney, Managing Director of Marella Cruises said: “By working with this global satellite internet system, we aim to provide the very best to our customers, with high-performing connectivity whilst at sea. We know that staying connected is key, whether customers wish to keep in touch with family and friends on their journey, or replying to an important email. We’re really excited to be offering this important upgrade across out fleet.”
