Route-specific score for STL–MCI
Southwest Airlines is currently in the rollout phase for Starlink with a high fleet coverage ratio of 86.2%, but as of the latest data (May 2026), no aircraft are equipped yet and no confirmed Starlink observations exist on the STL->MCI route. The rollout is announced to begin in summer 2026, so no current probability of Starlink availability on this route is supported. Despite the high fleet coverage ratio, the rollout status is 'rolling_out' with zero equipped aircraft, so the probability is anchored at zero. No recent news or community sightings support a higher estimate.
