United Airlines has installed Starlink on over 300 regional aircraft and aims for over 800 total by end of 2026, representing 53.4% fleet coverage. However, there are zero observed flights with Starlink on the ORD->AVL route, and no direct sightings or news specifically mention this route. Recent news confirms Starlink on mainline United flights but only on select routes (EWR->LAS). Given the lack of direct route observations and the fleet coverage ratio, the probability is anchored near the empirical observation rate of 0.0%, adjusted upward conservatively to 0.40 to reflect the medium confidence rollout status and regional fleet installation, but not exceeding fleet coverage by more than 0.10 without direct route evidence.
