Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

Someone who seemed to think they were famous at the QF service desk on Thursday night when our flight was cancelled. A self appointed 'number one qantas flyer' (who was in the QP, not the J lounge) who was banging on about being on tour and needing to fly... I'm pretty good with faces but while he was familiar I have no idea who he was. Apparently QF DKWHI either.

Spotted PUP Jackie Lambie at MEL on our return.

Sounds like another rant from a "I'm almost Platinum" NB.
 
Last OS trip I met the NZ prime minister John Key in the Koru lounge Auckland. Well by met, I accidently ran my pram into him, exchanged pleasantries, then wondered why some goonies were ushering me away quickly - didn't realise who he was at the time :oops:
 
Only one was when we flew into SYD from NRT, one of the Parramatta Eels asked me for the time. I had no idea who they were, though - not a football fan.
 
Ok it's a bit OT but here goes:
Just scored Jeremy Clarkson's driver to LHR via the QF Chauffeur drive.
45 minutes from Westminster to the BA T3 lounge (and of course QF10 is late :rolleyes: ).
The Clarkson connection is true BTW and not my attempt at poor humour :D
 
Spotted John Borghetti in J SYD-BNE Last week.

Pretty empty cabin with only him, myself and one other gentleman.

The car guy needs a driver !!!

I'd say Jeremy Clarkson has got bigger issues to worry about right now like perhaps finding another job. :shock:
