I am sure many on here would agree. But there's a lot of unknowns.
I believe that many existing wifi products on airlines filter out video call traffic.
But whether anyone is allowed to do that with Starlink I don't know, apparently they put constraints on how it can be configured.
The best comparison would probably come from others who have experience of regular flying on other airlines that already have this product.
What BA do will probably be the same as that.
