It'd be tempting to assume that celebrities using the public terminals instead of the future Private Suite are attention-seekers, but given the potential cost perhaps they're just being sensitive with money!

Like Jason Derulo :)
After reading that article, I have no idea who he thinks he is - and won't waste my time Googling him. Just because you have Concierge Key doesn't mean you don't show respect to others.
 
Pretty sure it was Dr Charlie Teo,neurosurgeon, on VA1 today.

He was escorted off the plane, I overheard someone was suffering from double vision, he asked the VA escort and she confirmed the symptom, and he was pushed to the front of the lines by the escort.

Sorry dont understand the post?

Sorry. My long haul and text skills suck.

I got the impression he was arriving at lax to see a patient. He asked the VA escort if a particular person was still suffering double vision and he was escorted to the front of the lines.
 
I immediately understood what you said. Sad to think someone possibly needs surgery due to something pressing out/in from the brain.

Voice judge "Seal" is sitting a couple of rows in front of me on QF12.


Ok, excuse my ignorance, please.

Was Otter, Walrus and Penguin close by?

Ok, I'm taking the p***,

I think the aforementioned 'Seal' might be better known as Hiedi Klum's ex? :rolleyes:
 
I was heavily drinking in the SkyClub T5 at LAX two weeks ago and spotted something very shiny across the room. The friendly bartender pointed out it was Robert MacKenzie and his Oscar (for Hacksaw Ridge).

Old mate from the bar who was also drinking heavily (ex Fiji Airways pilot, IIRC) and I decided to go and make friends. That thing is HEAVY. Turns out Robert and his companion were in Y a few rows ahead of me on DL41.

P.s Excuse my appearance. Just finished sleeping in a tent for a week. Talk about apples and oranges.

Great pic! Although Hacksaw Ridge was, for me, very disappointing. Kept thinking, why does this guy look like Roger Federer and in the Marines he gets to keep his hair?

Happy that you got to share the glam! I've drunk champagne out of a Melbourne Cup, is the closest I'll get to this.

It was definitely the closest I've ever come to a celebrity that's for sure. Hacksaw Ridge, by the name alone, is not my kind of movie and I'd probably need therapy if I watched it! Robert was a true aussie gentleman though, totally happy to have a chat and show off his new toy. Champagne out of a Melbourne Cup doesn't sound too bad either :)
