Southwest Airlines uses Starlink satellite WiFi on equipped aircraft. Flight WN284 operates AUS to BWI. Our Starlink probability score for this flight is 95%, based on Southwest Airlines' fleet rollout data and confirmed tail numbers.
The most reliable method is to check your specific tail number after check-in — your boarding pass or the Southwest Airlines app may show the aircraft registration. You can then search that tail number on StarlinkFlights.com. Alternatively, our probability score for flight WN284 is 95% based on current fleet data.
The prediction for WN284 is based on the aircraft actually observed or claimed to operate this route, not a generic fleet-wide guess. Verified through a direct, dated sighting report for this specific flight. A confirmed, dated passenger sighting for this specific flight can override this when one exists.
No prediction can guarantee a specific aircraft. Airlines perform last-minute equipment swaps for maintenance, operational needs, or schedule changes — meaning a Starlink-equipped tail can be replaced by a non-equipped one on the day. A score of 80% or above means historical data strongly favours Starlink on this flight, but it is not a guarantee. For the most reliable information, check the airline's gate display or app on the day of departure.
