Starlink

What is the status of Starlink internet installation on the non-expedition ships? Is it installed on any? Also, can anyone advise of the quality of the internet on the Encore, recently? Thank you!

I was on Encore last month,the speed was good and I had no issues.

I have just come off Pursuit and the speed is very fast.

Let's hope all ships get Starlink soon.

We have moved to a location so remote that Starlink is our only real Internet option. So far, we have found it to be wonderful. Whether that is because of satellite saturation over in northern California and with that will be the case in the middle of the Pacific remains to be seen

How does Starlink compare to the upgraded internet of recent years, which I thought was great for streaming, video, FaceTime, ZOOM, etc. and even steaming live Peloton classes, except for going down/out about 10 percent of the time. How is the speed? (Will be on Venture in a few weeks.)

It was seem listen fast enough that I didn’t even bother measuring download speeds. We do not do gaming but worked for streaming and VoIP calls
