Have you checked the seat pocket in front of you?

I did. I keep finding CL BP's, who even on full Y flights don't get upgraded.

I google their names, interesting backgrounds some of them.

Life is tougher for them these days.

What have you found?
 
I once found a US$100 note on an AA flight in the side of the seat I was in. In the front row of F, too! It was folded and I initially thought it was $1 or $5 as they're all the same colour.. but opened it to find it was worth more!

What seat were you in when you found the CL BP?
 
I found my inflight magazine + safety card + every other thing in there covered in mayo/cheese spread. I subsequently and by accident cover myself in the same stuff. It was gross!

Generally 4A. One bloke thought he was there, however he was given 5A. However it was a full 738, and his sequence number was 156.
 
Last week I found a copy of Time Out and some watch collectors magazine - I never believed anyone actually bought those mags!
 
All I have ever found is the crossword/sudoku filled out in the QF mag, or chewing gum stuck to its pages. I must try to fly at the start of the month more often to get a fresh magazine!;)
 
Remember once in the mid 90's finding a QF BP showing for a passenger showing Blue status and thinking something like: "Wow, that person must fly a lot".:p
 
I never leave my BPs on planes or in hotel rubbish bins any more. The last time I did either, I found myy FF a/c locked out because of too many tries at the password...

Sure, people can guess membership numbers, but more chance of them trying if they know you;re a very frequent flyer.

Mind you. I've always thought that people who tryy to steal points are just stupid, as they'll get caught through redeeming them...
 
An A4 (online check-in) BP from about a week earlier... (goes to show how thoroughly they are checked)

Worse sill some airlines put your passport number on the BP, like NZ.

If you are flying QF J check the storage in the side of the seat, I normally leave my iPad there!!
 
Has anyone found the library book I left on the plane? You would think the cleaners would be able to send a book back to library or keep in lost and found, but it was never seen again. After the fine and replacement fee the wines on the plane seemed more expensive.:oops:
 
I've never been game to to dig to deeply however I might start as I could do with an Ipad or a $100US note !
