Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

Times are tough. Probably a personal trip so too strapped to pay for business.

Or the J cabin was full and his schedule meant he had to be on that flight ? No one mentioned he was in any lounge so he may NOT have been granted a Chairman's Lounge key, which seems unlikely, and that should have guaranteed a seat in J ?

Gerry Harvey last night on QF147 to AKL…. in economy!

I would expect he flew Y. I know many smart people that fly Y - it can be hard to justify the price of a J seat in anyone’s language.

At 84 he is unlikely to drink the J cabin dry, may as well travel Y

Forbes rich list shows Gerry Harvey's net worth as at 26/01/24 as $1.9 billion ($US ?) so maybe at 84 years old he is concerned about his retirement nest egg. Or maybe he enjoys mixing with his customers !

An ABC article a few years back indicated that flying whY was one of his frugal habits. He was quoted as saying…

“I try to lead somewhere between a simple life and a normal life. I don't think there'd be anyone as wealthy as me in Australia that would live a more simple life than I do.”

There you have it folks - Gerry’s just a little Aussie battler like the rest of us… or at least those of us with a USD$1.9B net worth
