Southwest Airlines is currently in the rollout phase with a high fleet coverage ratio of 86.2%, which normally would suggest a high probability of Starlink presence on routes. However, perplexity-verified context and recent news confirm that as of mid-2026, Southwest has not yet equipped any aircraft with Starlink, and no observations or community sightings exist on the MKE->DAL route. Given the rollout status 'rolling_out' and zero equipped aircraft, the probability must be anchored to the empirical observation rate of 0.0%, despite the high fleet coverage ratio. Therefore, the probability remains at 0.0 with medium confidence due to the announced rollout and expected future installations.
