WASHINGTON, June 11, 2026 – GCI, Alaska’s largest telecommunications company, is partnering with Starlink through bonded gateways to bring a reliable internet connection to thousands of Alaskans.

The agreement will bring connectivity to several major community hubs including Bethel, Sitka, Kotzebue and Dillingham. Starlink’s dedicated service with bonded gateways will leverage its inter-satellite space lasers to bring multi-gigabit connectivity, even to locations far from Starlink ground stations.
