Steve Carell in 1F LAX-JFK. Very well disguised with coat and jacket. Never would've recognized him if he hadn't turned to me during boarding and apologized for standing in aisle. Had concierge service from FL but didn't recognize him there

And he helped me with my bag after landing! So cool to see a celebrity on my first truly high end flight!

Diana Ross today on AA135 LHR-LAX. She was in 2J and even changed into her AA pjs. She still had her sunglasses on while in the darkened cabin

I've sat next to him on a couple flights. I offer him my legroom as, on a CRJ, even the exit row doesn't offer him enough legroom.. Extremely nice guy.

Pretty sure it was Bill Cosby and his wife two rows up from me on my morning SEA-JFK flight two week's ago. He was stubble bearded, baseball capped, and kept a rather low profile in the window seat throughout the flight (for obvious reasons these days).

Just boarded AA #1192 LAX - ORD. Sitting in 4A and I'm 90% sure William H Macy is in 4E. There were paparazzi out front when I got here. I think I'm the only on who's noticed, or I'm crazy and it's someone else. Probably the latter.
EDIT: Pretty sure his wife is right next to him. Felicity Huffman.

Naomi Campbell next to me in 3F on AA 345 LGA-ORD last night...Bizarre outfit..Hoodie, sunglasses, surgeons mask and ski boots. Asked me politely to switch seats so she could sit next to who I assume was her assistant.
