AI Probability Analysis
Route-specific score for MDW–LAX
Southwest Airlines is currently in a rolling_out status with a high fleet coverage ratio of 86.2%, which would normally suggest a high probability of Starlink availability on routes. However, perplexity-verified context indicates zero aircraft currently equipped, and no observations or sightings confirm Starlink on the MDW->LAX route. Given the rollout is announced to begin in summer 2026 and no recent news or sightings support current availability, the probability is anchored conservatively at 0.30, treating the fleet ratio as a floor but not exceeding it due to lack of direct evidence.
