Frontier Airlines "recently" held discussions with SpaceX about adding its Starlink satellite internet service to its planes and is more hopeful about adding such a product than in previous years, the carrier's CEO told CNBC on Thursday. Adding Starlink's Wi-Fi would be a departure for the budget carrier, which doesn't currently offer inflight internet service. Most major U.S. airlines offer Wi-Fi on board for a fee, though many are trying to improve the quality and lower the cost. In June, the FCC authorized SpaceX to provide mobile Starlink internet service to boats, planes and trucks. Denver-based Frontier has explored adding Wi-Fi on board before and frequently talks with other providers but, so far, hasn't been able to justify the cost.

In this article ULCCJBLUSAVEwatch nowJetBlue Airways has reached a $3.8 billion deal to buy Spirit Airlines in a takeover that would create the country's fifth-largest airline and remove a fast-growing budget carrier from the market. Spirit lacked the shareholder support to win approval of the Frontier merger, which was first unveiled in February. If approved by regulators, JetBlue's takeover of Spirit would leave Frontier as the largest discount carrier in the U.S. It would also be the first major U.S. airline deal since 2016, when Alaska Airlines beat out JetBlue for Virgin America.
