Southwest Airlines has zero Starlink-equipped aircraft in its fleet (0 of 850, 0% coverage), which is the primary determinant for this route assessment. The TPA-SDF route has zero observed flights with confirmed Starlink in the observation data, providing no empirical counter-evidence. There is no recent news, Perplexity verification, or community sightings to suggest any deviation from the fleet-wide lack of equipment. Given that Southwest's rollout status is 'rolling_out' but currently has 0% fleet coverage, passengers on this route have essentially no probability of Starlink availability. The airline may eventually equip aircraft, but without any equipped aircraft currently operating, the probability remains at the floor.
