    Delta Air Lines: It's all good with 5G

    Delta Air Lines said all of its aircraft have been updated with equipment to prevent possible interference from some 5G signals.

    The company added that "there was no notable operational impact between July 1 and this week when the work was completed."

    In late 2021, just before Verizon was scheduled to switch on its 5G network in its new C-band spectrum holdings, the US airlines industry conducted a major public relations campaign to stall that rollout. "Major disruptions to passenger air travel, commercial transport and critical helicopter operations can be expected from the rollout of 5G," a group of airline executives warned near the end of 2021.

    “The Internet wasn’t meant to be metered in bits and bytes, so it’s insane that wireless companies are still making you buy it this way. The rate plan is dead — it’s a fossil from a time when wireless was metered by every call or text.” John Legere 1/5/2017

    Is that including their feeder airlines like Endeavor Air?

    I believe the smaller airlines have the most issues with upgrading equipment.

    I have assumed that the stall on C-Band led to major congestion issues for Verizon and the bumpy rollout of 5G -UW. While AT&T did not have serious congestion issues it seems like they are also ramping up their speeds as well since C-Band is cleared.
