Gogo has enhanced an existing contract with United Airlines (UA), to
upgrade 13 Boeing 757 premium service aircraft with its new ATG-4
connectivity solution. Complete installation of the upgraded equipment
is slated for early 2013.
“These routes have grown to be some of the most popular routes for connectivity related services,” Gogo president and CEO Michael Small said. “By upgrading to ATG-4, Gogo will be able to better address the growing demand for Internet access on these flights.”
The enhanced solution is expected to speed Internet access from the current 3.1 Mbps to 9.8 Mbps per aircraft with the addition of a directional antenna, dual modem and EV-DO Rev. B technologies.
UA’s premium service fleet operates from New York JFK to Los Angeles and San Francisco. It has offered Gogo connectivity since January 2009.
