On my 26 Feb 09 United flight from Dubai to Dulles (DXB-IAD), there was something I had not seen before at the Dubai FC/GS checkin counter: A letter, in a little frame, listing by name the Global Services members on the flight.

Of note, there were 14 GS passengers on the flight.

IDEX (International Defense Exposition) was last week in Abu Dhabi, which likely accounted for some of the passengers.
