Celebrity Sightings - Jessica and Nick [Yawn]
I was on the same flight from CUN-DFW back as Jessica
Simpson and her husband in March of this year. For
someone who is allegedly minted, I would have thought
that she could have flown on a private or chartered jet,
rather than be forced to fly and collect her luggage in the
same crappy baggage claim area as the rest of us.
BTW, she ain't nothing special looks-wise and if brains
were made from dynamite, wouldn't have enough to
blow her neatly coiffured head off.
Cheers,
Parkesy

Don't know if this counts...

Ted Danson
Ted Danson graced the seats of FC on the May 31st, transcon, JFK-LAX flight. I had no idea that his celebritydom (neologism?) was still in full effect, but apparently it is. We had an emergency landing in Kansas City. We deplaned and I exited the airport for a stroll outside. By the time I came back, the entire airport was abuzz with the news. The security guard asked me "is it really true that Mr. Danson is on your flight?" Go Ted!

Woody Harrelson
I haven't even been a member of this forum for long and I already had a celebrity sighting! 
He sat in the seat directly across the aisle from my husband (first class from DFW to OGG). I didn't know he lived in Maui! He slept for at least 5 hours straight and didn't eat any "airplane food" whatsoever. But he was a nice guy - got a girl who was gushing over him to take a picture of me with him while my husband was collecting our bags in baggage claim.

It wasn't on AA, but I found myself "Touched By An Angel" on a Delta flight from LAX to SLC. The Rev. Della Reese was across the aisle from me on a 767. It was the last row in F, and she had the aisle seat on the left while I had the left aisle in the middle.
The FA's all knew her because she flew that same flight every Monday morning while filming TBAA in SLC. She always went home to her church in LA on Saturday and came back on Monday.
She was a very gracious lady. She sat with her assistant reading her script. It was a cool experience.
Sorry to post it in the AA board since it wasn't an AA flight, but not a lot of celebs use Delta so there isn't a thread like this anywhere else.
BTW, I'm an AA defect who now HATES Delta........so I wouldn't go to that thread to post anything but negativity. =)
