Gogo has received an STC from the FAA and certification from JCAB to install its Ku-satellite based connectivity service on Japan Airlines' 777-200 aircraft. The two certifications are key milestones that pave the way for launching service on JAL.
Gogo has partnered with JAL to install connectivity service and Gogo Vision - Gogo's wireless in-flight entertainment service – on JAL's entire domestic fleet.
"This is a major milestone for Gogo and a big step in clearing the way for connectivity service on JAL service," said Michael Small, Gogo's president and CEO. "We are proud to offer a consistent global connectivity experience anywhere our customers fly; whether it's on regional aircraft, domestic mainline aircraft or these Ku-equipped 777s that travel around the world."
