Saw Idris Elba in the queue with his Mrs for the first check in around 8:50am. Didn't see him in the CCR. I then got on BA173.... Brian May was seated few rows ahead (I was in 5K) I didn't realize who he was until I snuck a pic of him to send to my brother. Only realized he was important cause he got papped after immigration in JFK and hustled into a black suv

Brian May on the 178 to Heathrow today - noticed him walking alongside us after passport gates and he joined the masses to hang out by the belt and wait for (somewhat delayed) suitcases. Was so low key and relaxed that very few people even realised who they were standing next to.

He was going to NY to do induction speech for Def Leppard into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He said on Twitter it was a quick return trip

2 from Little Mix were on BA0269 in J on Monday 25th March. Had partners and/or social media content types with them. Very quiet on the flight but moaned constantly in the 2 hour immigration queue at LAX - as did we all!

Jerome Flynn on BA0176. And a tall blonde woman who is apparently in Game of Thrones.

I was in WT+ on a flight to JFK. For some reason the configuration of the plane was F/WT+/CW
Ben Kingsley kept on walking around the first cabin before the plane took off, right in front of me. Once the plane was in the air and the curtain went across, that was the last I saw of him

Hi Fraser,
Thanks, I would have just called him 'Ben' or 'Benny'
