United Airlines has installed Starlink on over 53% of its fleet, with confirmed rollout on 300+ regional aircraft and plans to exceed 800 planes soon. However, there are zero direct observations of Starlink on the LAX->PRC route, and no specific news or sightings mention this route. Given the fleet coverage and rollout status, the probability is anchored near the fleet coverage ratio but slightly discounted due to lack of direct route observations. Recent news confirms mainline Starlink flights have begun but on other routes, supporting a moderate likelihood rather than high certainty.
