Last Friday, 6/14/2019, Tracee Ellis Ross was in F. I’ve also run into her mom (Miss Diana Ross) twice - once in F (LHR-LAX) and another time in the old Flagship Lounge at LAX.

On Friday, my brother and niece flew on an LAX-SFO flight with Craig Robinson (actor from, "The Office," "Hot Tub Time Machine," and I'm sure others). My brother took a picture of my niece and her boyfriend with him at SFO after they landed.
He was wearing a hat and sunglasses; I had a tough time figuring out who he was in the picture. But evidently they knew. They said he was really nice.

Apparently Cam Newton was on an AA flight to CDG earlier this week (assuming CLT - CDG though could also be the return CDG - CLT). Surprisingly booked in regular Y (especially for a guy of his height with a $100M contract) and apparently offered the guy with unlimited legroom $1500 to switch seats.
Shocked the guy declined -- not that long of a flight for $1500 -- would have taken on the spot unless some other mitigating factor (e.g., leg injury where the extra room was crucial)

That's the more surprising bit. How did he/his PA screw up enough to end up flying commercial Y?

$1500 cash isn't enough, even for that seat. $3K or more, I'd seriously think about it if he complimented me on Instagram too.

LOL No, he wasn't pointing out flaws in the plane. But yes, MJ was definitely the taller of the two.

Last night, AA992 EZE-LAX sat opposite singer Michael Buble, his wife, actress Luisana Lopilato (along with their three kids and a nanny). I was next to her and didn't know much except their youngest was crying and didn't realize he was behind her until he got into a bit of a snit with the purser about her attitude. Upon arrival at LAX this morning, he was in a knit cap pulled far down, sunglasses, and a long coat - because on a sunny, 75F day in LA, that's what everyone does to blend into the crowd :-)

Flew AA341 MIA-LAX September 7 (3-class 321). Al Pacino, a handsome black guy who acts in the show Empire, and a British cricketeer of note.
Chatted for about 10 minutes during a delay when the jetway operator bashed the plane three times and couldn't get it right. All very nice people.
