United Airlines is actively rolling out Starlink with over 52% fleet coverage, including confirmed installations on mainline aircraft such as the Boeing 737-800. However, there are no direct observations of Starlink on the AUS-ORD route, and recent news highlights inaugural flights primarily from other hubs (EWR, regional routes). Given the fleet coverage and rollout status, it is reasonable to anchor the probability near the fleet coverage ratio (52.2%) despite zero observed flights on this route, as aircraft assignment variability is expected. The probability is capped at fleet coverage level due to lack of route-specific sightings or observations.
