Lufthansa Technik achieves milestone cabin delivery
While it took more than a decade to reach the first 1,000 deliveries milestone, Lufthansa has gained significant momentum in recent times, with the next 1,000 units delivered in just six years. It is working with Gogo.

Lufthansa Technik has delivered its 2,000th Networked Integrated Cabin Equipment system, including in-flight entertainment. The company is now expanding its collaboration with Gogo to integrate its comprehensive Gogo Vision premium content.

While it took more than a decade to reach the first 1,000 deliveries milestone, Lufthansa has gained significant momentum in recent times, with the next 1,000 units delivered in just six years. Every year, its components are now clocking more than 30 million flight hours, which would be impossible without Lufthansa Technik's reliable customer support and extended production capacity. Since the launch of the first production line in 2004 the company has shipped more than 400,000 parts for the system, including 100,000 line-replaceable units (LRUs) that keep the global fleet flying. The production capacity for components at Lufthansa Technik's fully owned subsidiary Avionic Design has therefore also more than tripled over the years, from 5,000 LRUs in 2015 to 18,000 LRUs per year.

The expanded collaboration with Gogo will soon enable passengers to stream a wide range of entertainment options on the cabin's built-in displays and access a variety of content, including movies, TV shows and magazines, all directly through the system on board various aircraft. This collaboration sets a new standard for in-flight entertainment across multiple aircraft platforms, ensuring a seamless, truly immersive and highly convenient experience on board.

Chris Moore, CEO at Gogo, says: “We are pleased to expand our collaboration with Lufthansa Technik to integrate Gogo Vision with Lufthansa Technik's system to elevate the inflight experience by delivering a vast array of premium content.”

Andrew Muirhead, vice president OEM and engineering services at Lufthansa Technik, concludes: “This is a milestone moment for us, and we are excited to announce our strategic collaboration to integrate Gogo's comprehensive content delivery system into business jets equipped with Lufthansa Technik's cabin management system. We would like to thank the team at Gogo for their collaborative spirit, trust and enthusiasm as we continue to innovate and deliver value to our joint customers.”
