Celebrity Sightings on United Airlines - 2014
 

Daniel Dae Kim of Lost & Hawaii 5-0 on the 1/15 HNL-EWR in F, UA 14. He was across the aisle from me in the single pod. He seemed to get a lot of rest like all of us on the long red eye.

Curtis Armstrong on 841 yesterday (Jan 21). Also in the UC, where 28+ of us waited several hours for the flight which just barely got out in the snow storm.

tyra banks today on ua443, seat 3a.

Pro golfer Craig "The Walrus" Stadler on IAH-EZE (819) Jan 24th.

1/22/14 ord-lax.....Chris Shiflett, guitarist for "The Foo Fighters", nice, friendly!
Dave Grohl, 2 rows behind.

Corrine Brown
 

I sat next to Corrine Brown, U.S. Representative for Florida's 5th congressional district on a flight from EWR to LAX last August... Her daughter "stole" my seat in F while I went to the bathroom. I saw what was happening so I hung around in front chatting to the FA. They saw me waiting and after finishing the discussion the daughter went back to her seat. Ms. Brown thanked me profusely for letting them have their discussion, after which I could not get her to stop talking ;).

Steven Tyler of Aerosmith EWR-HNL today, in F. A non-rev friend is on the flight with him.

Don't know if this totally counts, but saw Gordon Bethune (former Continental CEO during the 1990s to early 2000s) on LGA - IAH on 1/29/14 across the aisle, one row up from me in First.

Even though it was a legacy United crew (Airbus plane), the FAs treated him
like a rock star. They asked for his meal order first and Global Services was there to meet him plane side when we landed with a cart if he needed it.

Small overheaded issue on the plane (it wouldn't close above him) and he jokingly offered to fix it and that he still had some licenses (guess he was a mechanic and pilot years ago?) .. he said to use a bobby pin to fix it to latch. Lo and behold.. it worked!

Paula Abdul

JFK-LAX ps
 

2/4 - 314 JFK-LAX Eva Mendes in 1A

SFO-BOS red eye on 2/8
 

In seats in front of me in F, Bill Belichick and his Trophy Blond ex-cheerleader looking girlfriend. Looks like perhaps they were coming back from Hawaii. I had no idea who he was until fans boarding kept saying "good season coach".

Willie Robertson from Duck Dynasty flying the dreamliner from IAH-LAX last Friday, 2/7.

Currently on a P.S. flight from NYC to LA and Tom Selleck is in 1B and Trudie (Sting's wife) is in 1F...also a couple others that I recognize but cannot come up with names. Will let you know if I do.
