Gogo's LTE Network Transition
What you need to know
The FCC‑mandated network transition to next‑generation LTE will shut down current Gogo Biz service, ensuring faster, more reliable inflight connectivity. Aircraft with legacy ATG systems or early-era AVANCE Boxes must upgrade or swap boxes before May 2026 or they will lose inflight connectivity capabilities.
What is happening and how will it affect you?
- The LTE network will require an update to both Gogo’s ground-based infrastructure as well as the hardware onboard the aircraft for any aircraft flying with a legacy ATG system (ATG 1000, 2000, 4000, 5000, 8000).
- Certain customers with early-era AVANCE hardware will also need to exchange their system to newer, LTE-capable AVANCE hardware. Learn more about the AVANCE Box Exchange program here.
- Gogo is offering incentive programs to upgrade/exchange onboard hardware to ensure no loss in connectivity through network transition as part of the Secure and Trusted Communications Networks Reimbursement Program.
