WIth Brussels airlines (now Lufthansa) a few years ago:

Margrethe Auken, danish very left wing politician go crazy in CPH, because some (2 or 3) students were checking in at business class checkin so she had to wait a few minutes, now she was gold :-(

Poul Nyrup, former socialist prime minister on BRU-CPH, was extremely annoyed and rude to FA as he couldnt get his bag to fit in the overhead bin.

Will.i.am on LH1069 NCE-FRA in C. I guess he had an F connection since he had a Panamera waiting for him in FRA.

Yep, a FA friend had them on MUC-LAX in F. They were supposedly very friendly and invited him to hang out with them at some party after the flight. ^

Kofi Annan and his wife one row in front of me from LCY to GVA back in 2008. There was a limo waiting to whisk him away upon touch down.

Niki Lauda in C on an OS flight from ZRH to VIW (even though at time his own airline HG was flying this route as well).

Not again!
I had here + 3 kids + parents in F on LAX-FRA.
She came to the lounge, children playing and disturbing everybody.
The youngest even called 911 on her cellphone and Ms Klum had to calm the 911 operator down and apologize. She acted like she owned the lounge.
Her parents are very nice and humble.

She was alone this time. Actually it took me a while before I recognized her...Regarding kids, I also travel sometimes with mine but they need to behave in the lounge and flight...

And why not...
Unfortunately domestic C on LH is not nearly luxurious enough to corrupt those guys for good.
Not trying to rehabilitate the lady, nor her Porsche-driving comrade, but I can witness she flies Ryanair too.

And I fail to see why politicians of a leftist party have to chasten themselves only because they represent certain interests.

Business Class and Porsches for all.
