Dick Cheney on 13 June from SAT to IAD. He was in 2D - me in 2F. Good amount of security prior to boarding.

ha yeah totally. No one met him in IAD when we landed - but in SA there were 2 uniformed SAPD and three "suits and ear pieces" type security. One went in before everyone else and cleared the aircraft and then boarded Cheney. I barely recognized him - he wears a cowboy hat all the time now due to skin cancer risks. It was a EMB175 - so we spoke for a few mins and then I left him alone. He was reading Commander in Chief about FDR.

Oops, 14-JUN. She is a TV actress; had to look her up, only recognised her face after being prompted.

Yes. She was pretty inconspicuous. I was encouraged by the fact that the f/as did not fawn over her and did not extend to her any overt special treatment. She and the people she was traveling with were met at the plane in ZRH by a fleet of Mercedes, but that's something I'd expect to see.

09 July 2017, UA1417. FLL to EWR. Pretty inconspicuous. I was in 5E. He boarded 2B, but seatmate asked him to change with her friend in 1F. he looked a little stunned, but did it. Going to Scottish I guess.

This was from a few years ago, but I just joined FT.
I sat across from Buddy Guy on UA 882 NRT-ORD in First. Kept a low profile.

I may have seen Jennifer Lawrence in the LHR United Club July 17. I was looking for snacks and on the way back to my seat, I noticed a woman coming up to this attractive blonde and gushed about how much of a fan she was of her and her movies. Her face did not register, until my wife started to watch "Joy" on the airplane, and was able to put the name to the face.
I have to admit I'm not completely sure, since 1) I'm totally blind when it comes to recognizing famous people out in public, and 2) Shouldn't she be in the Global First Lounge with her fame and money?
Anyway, who ever the actor was, she was very gracious to her fan.
