Internet Provider Chosen for Fleetwide Service

NetJets has signed on with Gogo Business Aviation to include its AVANCE L5 and associated services to the fractional operator's fleet.

The deal will include the AVANCE system, Gogo 5G, and Gogo Galileo, the company's satellite-based LEO broadband internet service. The agreement is good for a full decade, and allows NetJets the chance to upgrade its aircraft fleet wide with all the necessary kit. 

“We are committed to providing our Owners with an exceptional travel experience, and Wi-Fi is a critical component,” said Brad Ferrell, executive vice president and chief administrative officer for NetJets. “Our Owners require reliable connectivity to continue their workday or connect with entertainment in-flight, which made AVANCE L5 and Gogo 5G the right platform to meet their needs, especially when traveling across America."

NetJets over the Atlantic will gain access to Galileo too, further improving the passenger experience for members in Europe. "Meanwhile, Ferrell added, "Gogo Galileo is an ideal solution for our European jets: It delivers high performance, it can be installed on any of our aircraft, and it’s backed by Gogo’s award-winning global customer support.”

“Gogo is excited to continue our long-term partnership with NetJets,” said Sergio Aguirre, Gogo’s president and chief operating officer. “With more than 450 U.S. aircraft currently equipped with Gogo’s systems, upgrading to AVANCE L5 will improve performance by three times, and Gogo 5G will improve performance several times that. Meanwhile, we are also bringing an even better experience to operators throughout Europe and around the world with Gogo Galileo.”
