> already solved with existing satellite providers.

From your comment I assume you have never looked into the pricing for other satellite internet with decent speeds and decent data caps.

When I drove around Africa for 3 years, the cost of even 1GB/month was going to be more than the entire expedition..

(Note: I'm talking about "satellite internet" that isn't Starlink)

Maybe the speed isn't an astronomical leap forward, but the price certainly is.

Surely these cheaper sat data rates will trickle down to cheaper tickets or cheaper inflight internet prices then...

Or now you'll get sat data wifi on flights where you previously didn't have anything.
