“At Bombardier, we’re always striving to provide the best in-cabin experience for our customers. With Gogo’s 5G network, passengers will have lightning-fast internet connectivity with higher bandwidth and enhanced streaming capabilities, providing them with an ‘in-home’ or ‘in-office’ experience,” said Paul Sislian, Executive Vice President, Aftermarket Services and Strategy, Bombardier. “Staying seamlessly connected at all times is paramount for our customers, and we’re pleased to be working with Duncan Aviation to provide the latest 5G air-to-ground connectivity solutions for our customers’ aircraft.” 

Designed specifically for business aviation, Gogo’s 5G network will be available nationwide throughout the contiguous United States and has started to expand into Canada. This impressive new in-flight connectivity solution can be accessed upon installation of the Gogo X3 line replaceable unit (LRU) and is expected to come to market mid next year. It will markedly improve the in-cabin experience and provide enhanced bandwidth and faster streaming abilities.
