FCC Renews Gogo's Exclusive Air-to-Ground Spectrum Licenses for 10 Years Through 2036
Gogo Inc., a provider of in-flight connectivity services headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado, announced on November 6 that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has renewed its Commercial Aviation Air-Ground Radiotelephone licenses for an additional 10-year term, extending Gogo's authorization to operate its exclusive nationwide air-to-ground spectrum through October 31, 2036.
The renewed licenses cover Gogo's exclusive 800 MHz air-to-ground spectrum across the United States and its 150 towers. Gogo is the sole licensee of this unencumbered spectrum, which powers its nationwide air-to-ground (ATG) network and the Gogo AVANCE and Gogo 5G connectivity systems installed on thousands of business aircraft across North America.
The company said the renewed licenses support the transition of legacy ATG customers to the AVANCE platform while complementing its Gogo Galileo low Earth orbit satellite offering for aircraft flying globally.
"The 10-year renewal of our exclusive, low-band nationwide spectrum allows us to explore growth opportunities in new markets and partnerships as utilization shifts to our newer platforms," said Gogo Chief Executive Officer Chris Moore.
