Gogo Biz enables passengers and flight crews to enjoy high-speed Internet capabilities above 10,000 feet in the continental U.S. and portions of Alaska, using their own Wi-Fi enabled laptops, tablets, EFBs, smartphones and other mobile devices.
Travel Management Company (TMC) is a privately-owned, full-service air charter company with an ARG/US Platinum Rating. The company solely owns and operates 50 light and midsize jets, including the industry's newest and largest privately-owned fleet of Hawker 400XP's, along with a growing fleet of Hawker 800/850XP's. More information is available on the company's website at http://www.tmcjets.com.
Scott Wise, general manager of TMC, said, "We own every one of the aircraft we operate and that gives us complete control over the fleet - including what amenities are offered. Connectivity has become like oxygen to our customers and Gogo Biz will dramatically change the in-flight passenger experience, as well as significantly differentiate us in the charter market. We're delighted to offer it and look forward to completing the installation process."
John Wade, Aircell's executive vice president & general manager, said, "We continue to hear that charter aircraft equipped with Gogo Biz fly more than those that aren't, and that when customers search for lift, Internet-enabled charter aircraft get chosen first. We're pleased to see TMC using Gogo Biz as a strategic tool to continue growing and expanding their company."
