Citation and Gulfstream Fleet being Equipped with Apcela's Systems Utilizing Apcela's Self-Installation Program
LAS VEGAS, Oct. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Apcela, a global innovator in high-performance, mission-specific networks, announced today that Jet-Ten, a leading private jet management and charter company headquartered in Addison, Texas, is upgrading its fleet to the Apcela Air-to-Ground (ATG) broadband inflight connectivity platform.
Jet-Ten has begun installing the Apcela ONE ATG system across its fleet of Citation X, VII, and Gulfstream IV aircraft, with plans to deploy the system on a total of 8 aircraft by early 2026. The upgrade will deliver next-generation broadband performance, providing passengers and crew with high-speed streaming, real-time communications, and uninterrupted inflight data access across North America.
The installations are being performed on-site at Jet-Ten's Addison, TX base by the company's in-house maintenance staff, leveraging Apcela's Self-Installation Program. The program is specifically designed around qualified management company maintenance organizations like Jet-Ten's. It enables their maintenance teams to complete the ATG upgrades in parallel with other scheduled maintenance events—optimizing costs and minimizing overall downtime while maintaining the highest levels of quality and certification compliance.
"Our clients expect the best in performance, reliability, and experience," said Steve Wilson, CEO of Jet-Ten. "By adopting Apcela's ATG platform, we're ensuring that our passengers enjoy the same high-speed connectivity in the air that they have on the ground. The ability for our maintenance team to handle installations in-house through Apcela's Self-Installation Program is a major operational advantage—it lets us control quality, reduce downtime, and deliver value directly to our customers."
The Apcela ONE ATG platform combines low-latency, high-throughput performance with flexible installation options that support both dealer and operator-led implementations. The system leverages Apcela's advanced networking and ATG technology to deliver connectivity that replicates the home broadband experience at altitude—providing seamless inflight experiences for passengers and flight crews alike.
Mark Casey, CEO of Apcela, added, "Jet-Ten exemplifies the forward-thinking operators we're designing our Self-Installation Program around. Their in-house technical expertise and operational excellence make them an ideal partner in demonstrating how operators can upgrade efficiently while maintaining complete control of aircraft maintenance, schedule, and quality, without the added time and costs of ferrying their aircraft around across multiple maintenance projects."
As one of the nation's leading private jet management and charter operators, Jet-Ten's adoption of the Apcela ATG platform reflects the industry's accelerating transition to high-speed, broadband inflight connectivity that delivers greater performance, efficiency, and passenger satisfaction.
Tony Aguirre, Director of Maintenance for Jet-Ten, along with members of Apcela's installation support team, will be on hand to discuss the program and announcement and will have Apcela's innovative SmartCart ground testing unit on display, at the NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE). Attendees are invited to stop Booth #550 at the Las Vegas Convention Center to learn more about the Apcela ONE ATG system and the Self-Installation Program.
