The ongoing deployment is entirely funded through private investment, reinforcing the company’s strategy of promoting high-speed internet access without reliance on public funding. With its 100% fiber-optic network, FLIGHT FIBER offers scalable multi-gigabit speeds, and the company continues to broaden its suite of services, which includes mobile and video options. The expansion is seen as a vital asset for both residential and commercial users, enabling smoother streaming, gaming, working, and online learning.

Business and civic leaders in the area have expressed support for the initiative. Organizations like Meritus Health and United Bank emphasized the importance of fiber connectivity in supporting essential services and powering future economic growth. The Greater Hagerstown Committee also highlighted how investments in high-speed internet are just as crucial to the county’s success as traditional utilities.
