United Airlines has a fleet coverage of 52.2% with Starlink equipped aircraft, indicating a moderate baseline probability. However, there are zero confirmed Starlink observations on the IAH->TPA route, so empirical observation data does not support a high probability. Recent high-confidence news confirms Starlink rollout on United, including inaugural flights and media tests, but these are focused on other routes (EWR->LAS and initial 737-800 retrofits). Community sightings confirm regional fleet rollout but do not specifically mention this route. Given the lack of direct route observations and no specific news about IAH->TPA, the probability is anchored to the fleet coverage ratio of 52.2%, without exceeding it. The confidence is medium due to solid fleet data and news but no direct route evidence.
