American has starlink signed from 2027-Q1 (500+ Airbus aircraft signed). ConnectScore counts zero for hardware that is not flying yet — a deal you cannot connect to is not connectivity.
How to check your American flight
We cannot score an individual American flight yet — there is no verified per-tail feed for this fleet. Until there is: check the aircraft type on your itinerary, prefer the sub-fleet the airline says it converted first, and treat any single flight as 90% likely. The extension shows this ConnectScore in its popup wherever you are booking.
American has Viasat on 890 of its 989 aircraft (90%) as of 2026-07, so it is close to a sure thing. Its ConnectScore is 54 out of 100 — mixed.
Is American’s WiFi free?
On American it is free onboard. ConnectScore multiplies the fleet share by a free-for-you factor, so a paid or unconfirmed free claim scores lower than the same fleet given away free.
How many American planes have Viasat?
890 of 989 — 90% of the fleet. Compiled from public airline announcements, July 2026.
ConnectScore is the chance of getting the GOOD system, not of any wifi at all. Legacy satellite service on the not-yet-converted part of a fleet is not credited. Signed-but-unflown deals (AA Starlink 2027, DL/B6 Amazon Leo) score zero until they fly.
