Delta CEO says there's no Elon Musk feud: 'I drive a Tesla'

Ed Bastian, the CEO of Delta airlines, denied reports that he doesn't like SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.

Delta CEO Ed Bastian dismissed claims of a feud with Elon Musk, stating, "There's no feud, as far as I'm concerned." During a CNBC interview, Bastian revealed he's a fan of Musk's projects, saying he "drives a Tesla" and supports SpaceX's Starlink. The tension reportedly began in March when Delta opted for Amazon's Leo satellite internet over SpaceX's Starlink.

Musk had warned Delta about the potential impact of this decision. Recent criticism surged after Bastian allegedly made unverified comments about Musk on X. Despite the unconfirmed allegations, Bastian emphasized there's no personal animosity, expressing no intention of retaliating against Musk.
