Ryanair CEO Rejects Musk's Starlink Proposal

Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary on Jan. 21, 2026 dismissed Elon Musk's suggestion to buy the airline and rejected installing Starlink satellite Wi‑Fi, saying it would cost about $250 million annually and add 2% aerodynamic drag. O'Leary said fewer than 5% of short‑haul passengers would pay for onboard internet, and the company is exploring other providers including Amazon's Kuiper.
