To promote its airborne Internet access system, Aircell offered NBAA showgoers a free trial of the Gogo inflight Internet service to try on the way home. Available on many airlines, Gogo offers connection speeds of up to 3.1 Mbps, likely as fast as many DSL services for home use.

The service fee is $12.95 for a flight longer than three hours, $9.95 for 1.5 to three hours or $4.95 for up to 1.5 hours, which is reasonable and well worth it. Mobile device users pay $7.95 for flights of more than 1.5 hours or $4.95 for shorter flights. Aircell also offers a 24-hour pass for $12.95 for flights on a single airline and a $34.95 unlimited monthly pass for all Gogo-equipped flights.
