CHICAGO, Oct. 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Gogo (NASDAQ:
GOGO), the leading global provider of broadband connectivity
products and services for aviation, announced today it completed
110 installations of its industry leading 2Ku inflight connectivity
solution in the third quarter of 2017. The company had a
total of 340 2Ku installed aircraft as of Sept. 30, 2017.
"Our rapid deployment of 2Ku is transforming global aviation.
Based on our pace of installs since Labor
Day, we are well positioned to nearly double the number of
2Ku installations in the fourth quarter as compared to the third
quarter," said John Wade, Gogo's
executive vice president and COO. "We are delivering
the most bandwidth, the broadest global coverage and highest system
availability for aviation."
Gogo will have approximately 600 total 2Ku aircraft online
across 10 airlines by the end of this year. The company
has shortened installation times to less than two days, which is
less than half the time that it typically takes to install a
broadband satellite connectivity solution.
