Dan Rather is hanging out in the waiting area for about an hour waiting for the aus-JFK flight this AM. Not surprised to see him in Austin... Little surprised he isn't in the admirals club.

Did you ask him "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?" :)

Cheers.

I've run into him a few times. I always wanted to do that. I had a nice conversation with him and exchanged business cards with him on an Acela a few years ago. But I couldn't bring myself to say it to him.

Anthony Bourdain was on my flight from DFW to ORD. Nice guy,very chatty. Not knocking the guy but he almost seemed to want to get recognized.

Jimmy Johnson (and his magical hair) on AA1442 DFW-MIA 1/08/2013 in F. He was very keep-to-himself.

This is interesting, since a couple of people have reported that he is more of a DYKWIM type person.

Was Doug Parker seated next to Richard? Rumour in Tempe is that they are secret BFFs.

Glee's Chris Colfer in F on AA4 10 Jan 2012 LAX-JFK.

Unnoticed by almost all of the passengers.

TV
 
Anthony Anderson (guys with kids) LAX concourse disembarking from F from somewhere, chatting with somebody about flying F. Jan 13. also amusing to see a couple of producer types in all black trying to take the platinum blonde friend through pre-check when she had a non-USA passport. gotta love LAX.

Does anyone else find that Denzel crack racist? Yes, I am aware that "Flight Plan" is a movie starring Denzel Washington, but in the context of all of those other tweets...

Oh, and it is a shame that AA didn't make Bourdain sit in the soiled seat.
