Gogo completes first Gogo Galileo installation in Brazil on multi-orbit
connected aircraft

Gogo's Galileo connectivity system has been installed in Brazil, marking a regional milestone.

The owner of the aircraft, a Bombardier Global 6000, chose to add the new system to achieve multi-orbit connectivity. It already had a Gogo Plane Simple antenna running on a geostationary earth orbit (GEO) satellite system. The owner chose to add low earth orbit (LEO) connectivity to ensure redundancy and constant reliable coverage worldwide.

Gogo’s Plane Simple Ku-band terminal using SES FlexExec’s GEO satellite system had been installed in 2024 by Líder Aviação, a Gogo authorized dealer in Brazil.

Líder Aviação has now completed the installation of a Gogo Galileo HDX electronically steered antenna (ESA) powered by the Eutelsat OneWeb enterprise-grade LEO network. HDX provides a compact, lightweight, low power and high-performance solution with reliable speeds of up to 60 Mbps, optimized for light to large-cabin aircraft.

A Global 6000 becomes the first aircraft in Brazil to receive a Gogo Galileo HDX installation, adding LEO connectivity to existing GEO capabilities and enabling Gogo multi-orbit service.

“The customer specifically sought to incorporate a LEO solution into the aircraft, recognizing its cost advantages, while still delivering exceptional performance. Travelling both within Brazil but also internationally, the aircraft owner wanted to keep their Gogo Plane Simple system to ensure multi-orbit redundancy,” explains Ewerton Libanio, Managing Director of Gogo Brazil.

“This enables broader global coverage - including remote and polar regions - while optimizing performance through lower latency, higher throughput, and intelligent traffic routing.”

In Gogo’s multi-orbit model, the best available network is dynamically chosen in real time, ensuring a more reliable, resilient connection with fewer dropouts and consistent high-speed performance. The result is a superior passenger experience, with seamless browsing, streaming, and business connectivity, all supported by a future-ready architecture that can evolve alongside next-generation satellite constellations.

In addition to consistent, high-speed inflight internet performance, all aircraft with Gogo systems have access to a comprehensive suite of value-added services, including advanced cybersecurity protections and training, as well as industry-leading 24/7/365 global customer support in multiple languages. Gogo also minimizes data retention and protects its customers sensitive information, committed to customer privacy.
