\"internetxon\"If you\u2019re a frequent flyer on American Airlines, then you\u2019re probably already aware of one of that company\u2019s biggest drawbacks. Their in-flight Wi-Fi is notoriously slow. The company has been in partnership with Wi-Fi provider Gogo for years, but recently took Gogo to court, citing the drastic difference between their Wi-Fi network speeds and the speeds offered by Gogo competitor, ViaSat.<\/p>\n

The suit was dropped not long after, but there are signs that the American Airlines\/Gogo relationship might be strained. Recently, the airline entered into a new contract with ViaSat to provide Wi-Fi service aboard 100 new planned Boeing 737 Max jets. Even more tellingly, however, the company had more than five-hundred aircraft whose Gogo contracts had expired, and those contracts were not renewed. Instead, they were also given to ViaSat, and all the Gogo equipment is being stripped out.<\/p>\n

Steve Nolan, a spokesman for Gogo, downplayed this issue, calling it \u201creally old news,\u201d but the fact remains that this marks a significant shift away from one Wi-Fi provider and to another. Long-term, the American Airlines\/Gogo partnership could be in trouble, despite statements from both companies to the contrary.<\/p>\n

For you, the consumer, the news is nothing but good. ViaSat\u2019s network speeds are significantly faster than Gogo\u2019s, and if you log a lot of in-flight miles on American Airlines planes, the result for you will be that you\u2019ll soon be enjoying faster in-flight internet speeds. That means you and your employees will be able to get more work done in-flight, more efficiently. It also means that during those especially long international flights, you\u2019ll be able to enjoy a bit of Netflix or other entertainment until you reach your destination.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a Gogo investor, on the other hand, this is a situation that bears watching. American Airlines is a major contract for the company, and a sudden splintering could put their future in doubt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
