CHICAGO, Oct. 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO), the leading global provider of broadband connectivity products and services for aviation, announced today it completed 110 installations of its industry leading 2Ku inflight connectivity solution in the third quarter of 2017.  The company had a total of 340 2Ku installed aircraft as of Sept. 30, 2017.

"Our rapid deployment of 2Ku is transforming global aviation. Based on our pace of installs since Labor Day, we are well positioned to nearly double the number of 2Ku installations in the fourth quarter as compared to the third quarter," said John Wade, Gogo's executive vice president and COO.   "We are delivering the most bandwidth, the broadest global coverage and highest system availability for aviation."

Gogo will have approximately 600 total 2Ku aircraft online across 10 airlines by the end of this year.  The company has shortened installation times to less than two days, which is less than half the time that it typically takes to install a broadband satellite connectivity solution.
