Vista Launches Gogo Galileo: Revolutionizing In-Flight Connectivity

UPDATE: Vista has just announced a groundbreaking partnership with Gogo to introduce the state-of-the-art Gogo Galileo broadband connectivity system across its global fleet. This innovative rollout is set to begin in November 2025 for Vista’s European aircraft, followed by rapid deployment in the United States and Asia starting in January 2026.

This launch marks a significant leap in in-flight connectivity, allowing Vista Members to enjoy seamless, high-speed internet access from takeoff to landing. Unlike traditional systems that cut off below 10,000 feet or over water, Gogo Galileo delivers uninterrupted service powered by the Eutelsat OneWeb constellation, ensuring users can stream, host video conferences, and connect with others worldwide without interruption.

Vista plans to upgrade one aircraft with the Gogo Galileo system every nine days, targeting at least 60 aircraft within the first 18 months. By mid-2026, all 270 Vista aircraft will feature Gogo Galileo or upgraded Ku/Kab-band connectivity, providing consistent, high-speed service globally.

Thomas Flohr, Vista’s Chairman and Founder, emphasized, “Our Members expect a global standard of ultimate excellence — in service, safety and now, connectivity.” He noted that Gogo Galileo will set a new benchmark for business aviation, making every flight more productive and enjoyable.

Adding to the excitement, Chris Moore, CEO of Gogo, stated, “The system reliability will ensure passengers enjoy an on-the-ground connectivity experience in the air, backed by multi-lingual 24/7/365 support.” This commitment to reliability and performance means Vista Members can remain productive, relaxed, and entertained, even in the most remote locations.

The Gogo Galileo system combines a single AVANCE unit with a Galileo antenna for simpler installation and enhanced reliability. Real-time monitoring and over-the-air updates will be available, along with a self-service portal that provides performance transparency for Vista’s operations teams. Spare parts have already been secured at all major Vista maintenance centers worldwide to minimize downtime.

This partnership signifies a world first for global coverage in business aviation. For the first time, Vista Members will experience uninterrupted broadband across continents and oceans, mirroring the speed and reliability of their office or home internet while flying at 45,000 feet. Whether streaming a live event or finalizing a critical business transaction, Vista Members can now rely on top-tier connectivity throughout their flights.

As the world of aviation increasingly demands high-quality digital experiences, Vista’s investment in Gogo Galileo demonstrates a commitment to innovation and excellence in business aviation. The future of in-flight connectivity is here, and Vista Members are set to experience it like never before. Stay tuned for further updates on this transformative rollout, as the aviation industry takes a significant step forward in connectivity.
