United Airlines has installed Starlink on over 53% of its fleet, with confirmed completion on 300+ regional aircraft and plans to reach 800+ by end of 2026. However, there are no direct observations of Starlink on the HSV->ORD route, and recent news confirms Starlink presence mainly on regional and select mainline routes like EWR->LAS and the first 737-800 retrofit. Given the fleet coverage and rollout status but zero direct observations on this route, the probability is anchored near the fleet coverage but slightly discounted to 0.40 to reflect uncertainty and lack of direct route evidence.
