Pegasus Elite Aviation, a US private charter subsidiary of Prima Air, has added its second aircraft equipped with Starlink high-speed satellite internet, a Gulfstream V, now entering global charter service.
This milestone follows Pegasus Elite Aviation’s landmark achievement in 2024 as the world’s first FAA Part 135 operator to install Starlink connectivity on a Bombardier Global 5000, marking another major step in the company's ongoing pursuit of innovation and excellence.
Compared with traditional in-flight connectivity, the Starlink wi-fi system delivers an unparalleled experience, enabling passengers to enjoy HD video streaming, live video conferencing, and seamless large-file transfers, even while cruising at 51,000ft.
“The experience is remarkable,” says Adam Stanley, deputy CEO of Pegasus Elite Aviation. “It's extraordinary to have faster speeds at 51,000ft than many experience at home. Starlink is truly a game changer for private aviation.”
With a fleet of more than a dozen Gulfstream aircraft, Pegasus Elite Aviation continues to reinforce its leadership in high-speed inflight connectivity. The arrival of the Starlink-equipped Gulfstream V further underscores Pegasus’s commitment to combining innovation with uncompromising luxury, safety and comfort.
“Our passengers’ safety and privacy are always our top priorities,” notes Lina Tullberg, president and CEO of Pegasus Elite Aviation. “True luxury lies in the details, from comfort and discretion to the ability to stay seamlessly connected anywhere in the world. We remain dedicated to expanding Starlink technology across our fleet and redefining the inflight experience for our clients.”
