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

Sam Dastyari in the SYD Flounge today, and speaking of politicians sometime ago we spotted Fred Nile in the SYD Flounge and it reminded me of the scene from Cannonball Run when Sammy Davis Jnr gets pulled over driving a red Ferrari and his excuse is that it allows him to do God's work faster ;) *

* the complete accuracy of the movie recollection stands to be corrected.
 
Marcos Ambrose in 3F today MKY-BNE on his way to LST. Very friendly and talkative. Flight was full and his dad was sitting a few rows back. There were 2 spare seats in J, and soon boarding, the CSM came back and welcomed Marcos onboard and gave him a bottle of water.
Suorised he wasn't upgraded

Why should he be upgraded?
 
Poh Ling Yeow on VA436 last night.

I wasn't on the flight, I was picking +1 up at the airport. Poh was one of the first to disembark. I would have said hello but she was talking on her mobile.
 
Dami Im was in the QF BNE DOM J lounge on Friday morning, flying down to SYD on her current tour. I asked her how she got off the big box at Eurovision and she was very friendly, telling me at first that it was 'magic' but then explaining how other people helped her down. She and her husband were friendly, let me take a photo with her, and said goodbye later on as they were leaving the lounge.
 
The "Green Machine" - Danny Green. MEL Virgin Lounge Friday 5th Aug at 7.30pm - probably on his way back home to PER after his good win on the 3rd. Great boxer; great role model and great bloke. Always up for a chat.
 
Just had a week at the Garden Inn at Oshkosh WI (USA) (on points) for the EAA (Experimental Aircraft Assoc -Airventure) and on two occasions Harrison Ford was on the next table at breakfast and also the Crown Prince of Saudi was there with his entourage. The Crown Prince came over is his Gulfstream G500 and Harrison Ford was flying his Beaver (DHC2).
One evening the Crown Prince was in the lift when it became stuck for 20 minutes, and Harrison Ford was in the bar, so the staff were thinking of asking Harrison to rescue the Crown Prince!!! (true story)

Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

I sort of feel for celebrities: they always have to be up for a chat because otherwise for the rest of their life someone is going to be telling stories about how rude they were.

I couldn't imagine how awful strangers constantly coming up to me would be! Still, they sort of signed up for the life, didn't they?
 
Danny G lived out at a beach apartment so we would see him at our pool. His wife is a very good swimmer.
 
Troy Cassar-Daley slumming it in 4E on a SYD-BNE VA flight on Wednesday. Middle seat!
