When upgrading from an ATG Classic system to an AVANCE L5 on a participating tail, customers may claim a $10,000 install rebate on the hardware price. They will also receive a $15,000 service credit towards their Gogo Biz 4G data plan if they upgrade to AVANCE L5 and activate service before December 31, 2024.
