I had the pleasure of flying with Mr. Danny Glover on LH 465/19JAN/MCO-FRA.
He was cool, but his Chinese assistant was a h... of a woman commanding me to stow carry ons etc.

The PR handlers, publicists, PAs are ALWAYS, ALWAYS the worst. Any high profile person that I've worked with for the most part have been really mellow, relaxed and no fuss.

It's their yappy PR girl who will be on a set making a fuss over nothing. To think the hooplah we had over the Caesar salad coming with bleu cheese was for the talent when it turned out it was for...HER.

John Malkovic, Yoko Ono, and the rich evil Baron von Rotschild are the last 3 that spring to mind, but there have been more...

Vishaal Sikka heading to FRA on LH 755 (Jan 19).

It was really odd to be see his picture in the newspaper that I was reading and then look up to see him walk past me in the BLR lounge (that's how I knew who he was)

He was followed by an assistant carrying a small laptop bag.

Part of the German U20 National Soccer Team on SQ346 SIN-ZRH in Business this week. Understood some of them were also on other planes and in other cabins. Have seen them before the flight in the SKC already, accompagnied by a big number of trainer staff and managers.
Most of them were wearing their blue or black Adidas training suit (with 4 ****).

Reinhold Messner was in the SEN lounge besides us on May 30. Super calm reading a huge stack of newspapers and magazines drinking coffee

nice coincidence - a player playing for FCB travelling on a "1860" flight. I reckon that a number of diehard FCB fans would not be amused

On a more serious note:

Jim Hageman Snabe, ex co-CEO of SAP, sitting in the SEN lounge in GVA on AUG31, presumably travelling on SK to CPH.

After the flight I saw he was accompanied by Mehdi Benatia (FC Bayern) and Kevin-Prince Boateng.
