Delta CEO chooses Amazon’s Project Leo over Starlink, Elon Musk warns Ed Bastian ‘will lose his job’ | Company Business News

Delta Air Lines picked Amazon's Leo satellite internet for passenger Wi-Fi over Elon Musk's Starlink. Musk warned Delta CEO Ed Bastian he will lose his job over the choice. Bastian said Leo offers better bandwidth at a much lower price. In-flight Wi-Fi is now a big way airlines compete for loyal, high-spending flyers. Delta rolls it out in 2028, and JetBlue starts next year.

Key Statutory Highlights

  • Delta chose Amazon's Leo service for in-flight Wi-Fi instead of SpaceX's Starlink.
  • Elon Musk said Delta CEO Ed Bastian will lose his job over that choice.
  • Amazon has about 400 satellites in orbit, while SpaceX has more than 11,000.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Nothing to file or pay here. If your business or travel plans depend on in-flight Wi-Fi, or you sign vendor contracts, track how this rivalry develops and read the contract terms carefully before committing.
