Gogo Business Aviation and private aviation operator Airshare have signed a multi-year onboard connectivity agreement, continuing a long-standing partnership between Gogo and Airshare, in which 65 per cent of the company’s Phenom 300 aircraft have already been upgraded to Gogo AVANCE.
Airshare has a fleet of nearly 150 aircraft, ranging from turboprops to ultra long-range jets. The company says its Fractional Program offers fractional shares and jet cards for the popular Challenger 3500 and Phenom 300 aircraft, both of which are covered by Gogo’s extensive Supplemental Type Certificate portfolio.
The agreement includes Gogo providing Airshare aircraft management clients an option to install Gogo AVANCE, Gogo 5G, and Gogo Galileo, the company’s Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) broadband satellite service.
“We are focused on delivering a best-in-class experience for everyone who flies with us, whether it be for business or leisure,” said John Owen, president and CEO of Airshare. “Secure, dependable connectivity has never been more essential for those flying private with us.
“We continuously explore opportunities to enhance Wi-Fi performance for both our managed and fractional fleets, and we’re excited to be offering these new upgrade options from Gogo. Having worked together for several years we’re extremely confident in their technology and customer support.”
