BROOMFIELD, CO – Gogo’s business aviation group Aircell has debuted the Gogo Biz in-flight Internet and voice service to business aircraft in Canada, the in-flight connectivity company announced Tuesday.
Business aviation customers can now use the service anywhere it's available in the Continental U.S., Alaska and Canada. The addition of Canadian coverage is the largest geographical expansion for Gogo Biz since the service was introduced to the business aviation market in 2009. Alaskan coverage was added in 2010.
Gogo Biz allows business aircraft passengers and flight crews Internet access above 10,000 feet, using their own Wi-Fi enabled laptops, tablets, smartphones, electronic flight bags and other mobile devices. As a ‘two-in-one’ service, it also offers voice service via cabin handsets and/or personal smartphones.
Canadian coverage is included with all Gogo Biz monthly service plans, and no additional roaming or registration fees are required. Service coverage (see Canadian coverage map here) is now available in Canada's most populous regions and flight routes, with seamless service on cross-border flights.
"The debut of Gogo Biz service in Canada culminates a multi-year development program and we're pleased to see it go live”, said Aircell's EVP and GM, John Wade, in the announcement. “With today's expansion, business aircraft can now connect everywhere Gogo Biz is available in the Continental U.S., Alaska and Canada – all with a single monthly service plan and no extra fees."
