Route-specific score for LHR–RUH
British Airways currently has very low fleet coverage of Starlink (1.1%) with only 5 equipped aircraft out of 459, and no confirmed Starlink observations on the LHR->RUH route. The airline is in rolling_out status, but the rollout is still in early stages with only one confirmed equipped aircraft. Recent news indicates a full fleet-wide deployment planned starting in 2026, which supports a slight increase above zero probability. However, given the lack of route-specific sightings or observations and very low fleet coverage, the probability remains low and anchored near the empirical observation rate of 0%. A small uplift to 0.05 accounts for the rollout status and upcoming plans without overestimating current route availability.
