Jason Pierce and a gaggle of various musicians tonight on AC153. He was the only one I recognized for sure however (although they all knew him) and it isn’t the first time he has been on the flight. Too bad he isn’t sitting next to the ex-PM cause that would be a good visual. And Harper usually sits next to where Pierce is seated.

A Calgary resident who was in DC one day and Toronto the next is difficult to explain?

i was on the 767 rouge flight in J, and on the way there , the fromt was filled with TSN personalities. I could only recognize Jennifer Hedger.
On the flight home after Game 2, I sat next to Mike Johnson, ex player turned commentator. Nice guy in person

For this thread, pretty much any person goes... so yes to TSN personalities and that Harper person.

Only people who have been flying a long time would understand this is not unusual.

I'm not even thinking these are separate trips that a frequent flyer might make. Given there are no nonstop fights between DC and Calgary, one must connect through an eastern city if using a Canadian carrier to return home.

He tried to sneak in to the planning meeting, but @24left wouldn't let him in. Told him he needed to sign up two weeks in advance!

Let that be a lesson to those who want to sign up for the YQB Do at the last minute!!

Monday, Aug 6 at 7am, PK Subban at Super Elite US checkin desk at YYZ. He was checking in a couple of hockey bags and taping several hockey sticks together with a baggage tag.

Had the chance to be at his show last Thursday in Lévis. Was a great show, but very crowded as you would expect. May be getting a bit old for these kinds of outdoor festival-type shows!

Another photograph and autograph for the Concierge celebrity pictures wall*.

*What the heck happened to it after the black box went up? Did people think it was too tacky? I didn't have a problem with it, but whatever.
