Remove Starlink's 90-Day Country Transfer Rule

Malcolm van der Merwe

I'm a yacht delivery skipper so obviously sailing all over the world. I purchased my mini in Mozambique a few years ago and constantly need to have the unit sent by courier back to Mozambique to start the reset........ pathetic! I'll continue using my iridium go thank you 👍

It's important to me because it would be useful to most sailors. For me in particular, I do not use that much data and cannot localized in French Polynesia anyway, so this petition does serve my interests directly but I know that it would assist many people. I love Starlink and wil defend Elon and co to the end for working tirelessly for our luxury. I do not think starlink is a requirement for travel, but a beautiful luxury, and I think people can and should pay for it or go without.

We use roam for buisness purposes and school. Switching to a priority plan makes it cost prohibative to be able to continue with the life we built around your services. To us this is a global product without boarders and that should be the way it stays.

We are a sailing family, circumnavigating. Our kids thrive in this learning environment, with first-hand cultural experiences, living history, marine biology, and language immersion. But, we rely heavily on Starlink to support their education as we travel and have already made financial commitments for online education for this school year, based on the assumption we’d have Starlink. We cannot afford a significant cost increase for Starlink, so this policy change could mean our trip is over.

Starlink provides internet at sea which is important for our safety. I would appreciate that the service can be continued without extreme cost increases.

The international sailing community coordinated a record 65 vessels in humanitarian response to hurricane beryl, this was the founding mission that led to Boats Without Borders, for which starlink is the technological pillar that allows our lifesaving operations across horizons. The sailing community has been connected, empowered, and enabled by the solutions starlink has delivered. But the new changes threaten the welfare, financial security, and humanitarian ability of this demographic.

Safety at sea. Contact with family.

Starlink is our lifeline, and these changes make it practically impossible to use...

Todd Harff

I understand Starlink requiring you register in the country you are in. Their policy needs to allow us to do that.

Patrick Whetter

I’m a full time cruiser and these changes simply don’t work for me

We are blue water cruisers and bought Starlink bc it promised internet connection all over the world. Its an important safety device aboard for us.

Especially for travelers in remote places, we are many—maybe not a majority, but we exist.

I live on a sailboat. Starlink is important to get weather and be able to communicate and research the formalities when arriving in a new cou try.

Murray Atkinson

I made this suggestion (actually to at least align the time limits) to a person at customer services.

They already killed general aviation. Now it’s time for maritime to go. Crazy!

Starlink has added an extra layer of safety and comfort to sailing the oceans. It would be be a big loss if the average sailor no longer has access to this amazing technology. Writing this while crossing the Arafura Sea, thanks to Starlink.
