He was in NYC to cook for Thomas Gottschalk's birthday party. There was a big report about that on the radio.

07 June 2010, LH 3725 OTP-MUC: Cristian Chivu (Champions League winner with Inter Milan) and Cosmin Olaroiu (team coach) in C. They were probably heading for JNB for the World Cup.

If upgraded, he'd better decline that offer and fly as booked. I remember the 'story' behind the most-likely-next-German-President Christian Wulff who got a free upgrade to Business class on AirBerlin and the oppsition requested his resignation because of that. He ended up paying for the fare difference eventually to stop all the fuss...

Will be interesting to see if anything comes up on this one in the press (and how Sigmar Gabriel will react to that)

Do you also remember who then-Minister of the Environment Jurgen Trittin argued his way into the newly opened First Class Terminal at FRA for himself and his delegation of twelve people? Caused quite a stir as well at the time.

Saw Heather Graham (Starred in Austin Powers, The Hangover etc.) at the LH F Class Terminal earlier in the month. I overheard the lounge attendant call her for the JFK departure.

Unless you were in C, there was nothing to see. None of the "stars" made it down to Y to greet the fans. Shakira was the only one in F apparently (bad case of swollen head? ).
