Elon Musk is feuding with Ryanair, even calling for its CEO to be fired, after the European airline shot down the possibility of using Starlink for its in-flight Wi-Fi. The dispute reached a new level of hostility when Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary told Irish radio station Newstalk, “I would pay no attention whatsoever to Elon Musk, he’s an idiot. He’s very wealthy, but still an idiot.” In response, Musk on Friday tweeted, “Ryanair CEO is an utter idiot. Fire him.” A user on X later suggested he buy Ryanair. “Good idea,” Musk replied. The battle started after Ryanair, an ultra low-cost airline, ruled out installing Starlink on the company’s jets. Although the satellite internet system has shown it can offer the fastest in-flight Wi-Fi, O'Leary told Reuters that the Starlink antenna for jets allegedly adds extra weight and drag, creating a “2% fuel penalty.” #ElonMusk #Starlink #Ryanair #TechNews #AviationTech 📸: Stefani Reynolds/Bloomberg via Getty Images, ElonMusk/X
