retort after the airline executive and technology mogul traded insults earlier this week. "I suspect he's a bigger idiot than me, but nevertheless, he probably thinks I am a bigger idiot than him," O'Leary said on Wednesday during an hour-long press conference in Dublin, where Ryanair is based. The two have publicly sparred after O'Leary said he would not install WiFi gear from Starlink, the Musk-owned maker of satellite internet gear, on Ryanair planes out of concern that the extra weight from the system's antennas would drive up fuel costs. "It is a terrific system. It works very well," O'Leary said. "The problem is if you put it on board aircraft, there is a cost of that of about $200 million, $250 million a year, including the cost of installation and then the fuel drag." Starlink did not respond to a request for comment. Musk's SpaceX company developed Starlink to provide internet connectivity, launching its first batch of satellites in 2019. Ryanair declined to comment
