Talking about Royal Family, I had a pleasure to fly with younger brother of the current Emperor on board ANA.
Security was extremely nervous whenever I stand up, but I believe I was thoroughly checked before I even board this plane.

And one more person, H.P.Baxxter (Scooter) on LH from DUB.
Because I presume tons of members of EU parliament on FRA-BRU-FRA are not celebrities 😉
But sometimes they are very chatty.

MEPs are the bottom of the barrel in the political class, so that’s saying something. You’d get more insightful conversation visiting the dementia wards .

I was on the same LH flights with Ville Valo (HEL-FRA in C) and Teemu Selänne (HEL-MUC in Y).

Just because he did overrun the runway in ILY and put the plane in Laphroig's peat field? He paid his "mea culpa" visit to the distillery and signed a cask that was given as a present. So, actually he got paid for his mishap.
