VAN NUYS, Calif. – May 21, 2024 – SoCal Jets, Inc., a full-service aircraft maintenance, avionics, and repair facility, today announces a new Gogo AVANCE slot program to level-up its customer service offerings as Gogo Business Aviation (NASDAQ: GOGO) readies for its network migration.
Customers operating a Gogo legacy air-to-ground (ATG) system (ATG 1000, 2000, 4000, 5000) must upgrade by Dec. 31, 2025, or risk losing their Gogo inflight connectivity once Gogo completes its network migration to newer LTE technology, anticipated in early 2026.
To avoid loss of service, SoCal Jets customers looking to upgrade their legacy Gogo system to AVANCE, or install it for the first time, can reserve a dedicated slot to ensure timely and expert installation by highly skilled aircraft technicians.
As a Gogo-authorized dealer since 2012, SoCal Jets’ expert team is well versed in Gogo connectivity systems. Its new Gogo AVANCE Installation Slot Program underscores its commitment to superior customer service and industry-leading standards, making it the preferred choice for aircraft owners and operators seeking exceptional avionics services.

“Our mission is to repeatedly provide better experiences to our customers with the highest standards, said Robert Roig, President of SoCal Jets. “With a dedicated slot program for Gogo AVANCE installations our customers can trust us with a seamless installation, on budget, and well ahead of any service cutoffs.”
