United Airlines has an installed rollout status with a fleet coverage of 36.7%, which sets a floor for the probability at 0.367. Although there are zero direct observations of Starlink on the BGR -> IAD route, the airline's rollout is well underway with over 300 regional aircraft equipped and expectations to exceed 800 planes soon. Recent high-confidence news confirms Starlink is active on mainline United flights, including inaugural flights from Newark, and community sightings confirm regional fleet rollout completion. Given the lack of direct observations on this route but strong fleet and news evidence, the probability is anchored at the fleet coverage floor of 0.367, rounded to 0.37, with a 'likely' confidence tier.
