The clock is ticking on Gogo’s legacy EVDO network. In May of 2026, all Gogo legacy ATG systems will lose connectivity.

Future-proof your in-flight Wi-Fi with the Gogo C1, a form-fit replacement built for the new LTE network. In most cases, installation can be completed in a day.

🌟 Order by December 31, 2025 to qualify for a $35,000 rebate.
