Airshare to equip fleet of Embraer Phenom 300s with Gogo Galileo connectivity
BROOMFIELD, Colo., May 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO) has announced that U.S.-based aircraft management, fractional ownership, jet cards, and charter services operator Airshare is equipping its fleet of Embraer Phenom 300s with the Gogo Galileo HDX system. The upgrade delivers high-speed, low-latency connectivity across Airshare's Phenom fleet, enabling passengers and crew to email, stream, video conference, and browse simultaneously from anywhere they fly.
The decision followed a successful demonstration flight during which Airshare executives evaluated the system under real-world conditions. Over the course of one hour, with 23 devices connected across eight passengers and two crew members, the system transferred more than 16GB of data while supporting simultaneous use of bandwidth-intensive applications including Netflix, YouTube in 4K, FaceTime audio and video, WhatsApp, DirecTV Stream, Hulu, Microsoft Teams video conferencing, and iperf performance testing.
Gogo Galileo is powered by the Eutelsat OneWeb low-earth-orbit (LEO) network, delivering reliable high-speed, low-latency broadband globally. The Galileo HDX electronically steered antenna (ESA) offers a compact, lightweight, aerodynamic and low-power solution capable of delivering reliable speeds of up to 60 Mbps and is minimally invasive to install. Installations begin this month at Airshare's maintenance facility in Wichita, Kansas.
"Delivering premium connectivity that keeps customers productive and entertained is essential to our flying experience," says John Owen, CEO of Airshare. "We look forward to offering our Phenom 300 customers the same standard they expect at the office or at home."
“High performance connectivity is no longer a nice-to-have, and it’s no longer limited to large cabin aircraft,” says Michael Skou Christensen, CCO of Gogo. “Passengers expect to board, connect, and stay fully productive and entertained simultaneously. Gogo Galileo brings that same experience to every segment of business aviation and Airshare’s Phenom 300 fleet is a great example of what that looks like in practice.”
