All mainline (except perhaps those due to retire) will receive the Starlink upgrade in 2026/2027, which is a WW system.

In the meantime, only Panasonic or ViaSat aircraft will have Pacific coverage. In addition to widebodies, some 757s and Airbuses, that does include a few select Boeing 737-900, 737 MAX 8, and 737 MAX 9.
