Spotify is coming to United Airlines seatbacks — with help from Starlink

United Airlines is introducing a custom Spotify app on its seatback displays, powered by Starlink's satellite Wi-Fi, allowing passengers to stream their personal playlists and podcasts at 35,000 feet. The app is a significant upgrade from traditional in-flight entertainment systems, which relied on preloaded content. The integration is a result of a partnership between United and Spotify, which began over a year ago.
