Despite zero direct observations of Starlink on the ZRH->BUD route for airBaltic, the airline has near-complete fleet coverage (98.6%) with 70 of 71 aircraft equipped, and multiple sources confirm 48 of 50 A220-300s are equipped. Given the fully deployed rollout status and high fleet coverage, it is very likely that Starlink is available on this route. However, the lack of direct route observations and no recent news specific to this route warrants anchoring the probability closer to the empirical observation rate (0.0) plus a conservative uplift of 0.37 (approximately 38% of fleet coverage) to reflect the strong fleet evidence without overestimating. Community sightings on other routes support the presence of Starlink on airBaltic aircraft generally, but no direct route sightings reduce confidence.
