United Airlines has installed Starlink on 53.4% of its fleet, with confirmed rollout on over 300 regional aircraft and plans to exceed 800 aircraft soon. However, there are zero direct observations of Starlink on the ALB->IAD route, and recent news highlights Starlink primarily on mainline and specific routes like EWR->LAS. Given the fleet coverage and rollout status, some aircraft on this route likely have Starlink, but without direct observations, the probability is anchored near the fleet coverage but slightly discounted to 0.40. This reflects medium confidence due to indirect evidence and lack of route-specific sightings.
