Ronan Keating in GF LHR now after being stuck into his own Storm, as it were. Was going to guest him into CCR but I know he likes it when you say nothing at all. And who knows, what if tomorrow never comes and I'm stuck listening o him?
As an aside I presume he will have to check in one of his 2 big bags plus guitar????

I never mentioned but he was in Club World on the BA209 to MIA didn't seem fussy at all and even swapped with the lady who was claustrophobic sat in 50A and didn't like the lack of window, which seemed jolly good of him!

Claire Balding on BA 58 Cape Town to LHR on Jan 28th- she was travelling with her partner and was happy to chat to fellow passengers in the lounge.
Traveled back to Cape Town on Feb 8th, BA43, Cherie Blair was on board, in 1A I think (I was in WTP but could see through). She stood very patiently in the immigration line just behind my fiancee and I

Absolutely no issue in the slightest with same sex relationships/ partnerships/ marriages at all.
She was a very pleasant lady who chatted to all who approached her.
Sorry for any unintended offence that was caused to anyone.

I guess a "BA Celeb" :-). Tenuous link, but never-the-less, BA Prem (saw tag on hand luggage) on flight from DXB in F yesterday. Met at door of plane by Special Services and escorted to a car from C gates. Very discreet. Looked more like a businessman type to be honest. I think I saw a Williams F1 tag on a bag, but that could have been entirely unrelated.

I wouldn't be surprised if all the team principals are Prem given the spend they control flying large teams around to each of the races- Ron Dennis certainly is a Prem and has been well treated when he's been on previous flights I have been on...

I've seen some people with F1 tags and rather boringly they don't seem to be team owners/mechanics but usually work for the banks or other major sponsors. I guess if you are in the Paddock you want to take a few mementoes!

Without me having to scroll back through this thread, have there ever been any economy sightings of A-Listers?
