Ryanair expects to offer free Wi-Fi across its fleet within three-to-five years as the technology improves, CEO Michael O'Leary told Reuters on Wednesday, after a public spat with Elon Musk over the use of his Starlink internet service. The sticking point, he said, is that Wi-Fi providers believe Ryanair's customers "will pay for it, and we don't think they will." ADVERTISEMENT"Then we'll be able to offer free Wi-Fi to our clients on all Ryanair flights ... we think that will happen in the next three-to-five years," he said in an interview. He joked that he and Musk could keep up their banter to "generate even more free publicity". Securing the skies is a government responsibility, it is a defence strategy, that is the responsibility of governments," O'Leary said.
