Today on LH1196 FRA > ZUR.
The female US, CDN and CH ski-teams. Heading towards St. Moritz after the NA races apparently. Mikaela Shiffrin as the only one in C on 1F, all others in Y. Her mother was in Y initially, but was asked to sit next to her during boarding.

Queen Silvia of Sweden
Queen Silvia of Sweden very recently on LH2421 ARN-MUC! She was in 1A travelling with a young man in 1C. Her assistants were in 2C and 3C. The curtains remained drawn on the entire flight and her assistants were extremely alert when anyone from economy class sneaked through the curtains to use the lavatories in business class. The crew spoke to the queen in German.
The queen and her assistants were the last to board. I was in 2C and the crew kept telling me that they also had window seats available. They obviously wanted the queen's assistants to have the aisle seats. When she boarded I understood the situation and swapped seats with one of her assistants and ended up in 2A.
Two private cars and German police waited at the gate in MUC. I assume that she was on her way to Seoul to the winther olympics.

Wolfgang Sobotka (Nationalratspräsident Austria) together with his entourage on OS551 today. In VIE he had a police escort to the gate. On the plane he sat somewhere behind me in Y. In ZRH they were met by airport representatives with 3 vans from ZRH VIP service.

Lounge sighting in the afternoon of June 5th in the Elite section of the LO lounge in WAW: Germany's 2010 Eurovision winner Lena (Meyer-Landrut) with what appeared to be her Manager or PA.
Both were wearing black Adidas sport pants. He was constantly speaking on the phone, apparently organising her agenda, while she was relaxing and looking at her phone.
I thought that they would perhaps be on the same flight to FRA with me, as they left the lounge only slightly before me, but I did not catch sight of them in the terminal or later on board.
