Route-specific score for MLI–ORD
United Airlines has installed Starlink on over 300 regional aircraft and plans to equip more than 800 planes by end of 2026, representing about 53.4% fleet coverage. However, there are no direct observations of Starlink on the MLI-ORD route, and this route is likely served by mainline rather than regional aircraft. Recent news confirms Starlink on mainline Boeing 737-800s starting late 2025, but no specific sightings or observations on this route exist. Given the fleet coverage and rollout status, but zero empirical observations on this route, the probability is anchored conservatively below fleet coverage at 0.40, reflecting possible but unconfirmed presence.
