Why Gogo Should WorryAT&T already has a

network of installed towers to compete on domestic flights.

AT&T has almost $4 billion cash on-hand and is profitable, while Gogo has just $200 million, and has yet to turn a profit.

Though AT&T could undercut on price for domestic flights, Gogo is the first-mover and already has relationships with airlines.

AT&T doesn’t have the satellite network Gogo does for trans-oceanic flights.

being signed are important, but only if revenue increases on planes.

Gogo’s desire to tap into the international markets is key, as it will help build a moat against deep-pocketed competitors.

Listen to conference calls for any details on international connectivity and the popularity of the offering with passengers.
