Wirelessly posted (Blackberry 7290: BlackBerry7290/4.1.0 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 VendorID/120)

Not really a celebrity, but the boss of the Deutsche Flugsicherung is sitting across the aisle and will fly BRU-ZRH-STR with me.

Any questions you can think of?

On April 10: Wolfgang Mayrhuber aka the Wolf with his wife in F (84 A and C) from SIN to FRA. He came to every pax in F and said hello and wished a pleasant flight. He was very nice!

LOL, no it was back in the days when she wasn't allowed to say a word (2001 as far as I remember).

Not sure it'll mean much to most (including those actually in the UK ) but Vernon Kay (TV presenter) was in 2A next to me in 2D (2C free) on my LHR-FRA yesterday morning. I was actually originally in 2C but moved at check-in. Nothing personal, Vernon - didn't know until I boarded

He was very quiet and unassuming and just minding his own business - slept for most of the flight, didn't even eat or drink anything.

A very nice guy. I've been on two flights with him; once, he sat next to me in 83C (I believe either LAX/SFO to FRA).

Talking René Baumann

Wondered, I know the woman next to me in the lounge in Praha. Yes, it is the wife of René Baumann, he is in the other room of the lounge. In a couple of minutes, we will flight together with their team to Zurich. BTW, I am DJ Bobo fan, not because of the music, but because of the creativity of the performance. From the flight: He flew Economy with his team. What a shame for me. ;-)

Josep Carreras from FRA-BCN in 1F, he had a HON sticker and his bags came 1 minute after he arrived to the belt (mine came as usual 25 minutes delay)

This must be a prime route for celeb sightings. About a month after this post with Leo, I was on the same flight and Sharon Stone was in 83A.

(The FCT and longhaul LH F service made it one of the best flights of my life, but Sharon helped make it a great story -- especially for my friends who aren't travel geeks)

must be quite busy travelling these days....bumped into him at the First Class check-in for US flights in T1, B at FRA. With entire family....presenting the news (and often bad news) for so many years seems to wear on people....or maybe he was missing the make-up from his TV crew..
