John Bunnell in the PDX boardroom, Fri morning 8/3/07.
Hard to believe no FT'r has reported a celebrity sighting on AS in almost three years!

Not totally AS, but close enough, I bumped into Sarah Palin at the PenAir gate in Anchorage about a month ago.
Also sat next to Alaska politician John Binkley on a FAI-ANC flight a few weeks ago.

My wife was on a flight some years ago when Jay Hammond was on the plane, accompanied by a Trooper in full uniform. A tourist lady asked the Trooper who the prisoner was.

Not exactly AS, but Joan Jett and her crew were on my recent AA ORD-SEA flight - flying in for a weekend concert at the EQC. And, I also ran in to Buzz Aldrin at the gate for a SEA-LAX flight several years ago - it's not every day you get to chat with someone who was the second human to ever walk on the Moon.

Who?
Thank goodness for my Google Toolbar. I had no idea who some of these people are. I appreciate those posters who give a hint.
I saw a couple of Seattle Seahawks in an AS waiting area earlier this year but nothing else recent.

Yeah, he is hilarious! It was about a year ago or so. I guess he flies Alaska quite often. I think his parents live in Seattle.
Madeline Albright was on a flight of mine as well. She seems so frail and humble despite being so powerful. About 15 years ago I was on a flight with Linda Evans as well.
Maybe that's a sign that I travel too much!?

Not exactly celebrity but I've been on AS 1-2-3-4 several times with Rep. Reichert and the fired US Attorney for Western Washington, before he lost his job. I'll miss seeing him on the plane.
