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

Occasionally funny man Hamish Blake in the MEL J lounge just now.

Sorry, but Hamish has as much comedic value as being slapped in the face with a wet tuna (ie zero).

Andrew O'Keefe yesterday in the MEL J lounge

Not really flying, but am on way to airport.

Was standing next to dr harry at a set of lights. Didnt recognise him, its only the idolistic young women near me that made it obvious. Lol.

I did recognise him after i knew.

Not flying, but flying related ....

Having a beer with a mate after work last Friday at Transport Hotel, Federation Square, Melbourne, and who should be standing next to us, but AJ!

Not that I am fashionable in any way, but it was interesting to note that for someone so high profile and well paid, he didn't appear that well dressed! Average suit, average tie!

Who is AJ?

Just a CEO of some airline but that's not important right now.

Who's watched Flying High one time too many? :mrgreen:

My first thoughts were ALAN JONES, and i know he doesn't like dressing up, then after putting motorsport out of my mind, which is hard to do after the hiatus we have been going thru....................ALAN JOYCE................., just had to put them out of their misery!

Maybe he can break the union there too and improve the service!

 

[thegurio]

Finally I can post in this thread!

This arvo on DJ1321 MEL-HBA we were graced with Ross Noble. Never got to talk to him, he was in row 13, i was in 8, and didn't want to seem like a knob, so we nodded to each other and felt that was enough!

Given that I'm always flying back and forth between ADL and CBR, you'd think I would run into Penny Wong in lounges and planes quite a bit. Well I've never seen her in a plane. Or a lounge. Or even an airport. But I did see her in Chinatown in Adelaide on Friday night doing some shopping with her family. Didn't get a good look at the new baby because I was a bit star struck to see Penny.

She’d probably be in the CL at both locations though, so unless you have access...

Glen McGrath in the SYD QF J lounge right now.

Where is the CL in ADL?

Where is the CL in ADL?

I'm pretty sure as you are walking past the desk it is straight ahead through a door marked private.

BTW I've seen Penny once on a flight, the trick would be to get the "business" flights. I've also seen Lord Downer a couple of times, including a stalker picture on the aircraft the first time.

I too have seen this man but in PJ (yikes) in SQ F back in 2000.

Was at the Hilton LAX Bar last night with Flayva Flav. I had no idea who he was until my drinking buddy pointed him out.

Also got to meet Penn & Teller in Vegas. Really nice guys (and yes, Teller does actually speak!)

Penn and Teller, they'd be great to meet, not sure about the other thing, is that even a name?

Penn and Teller were awesome. More than happy to sign autographs and take photos so I have pics with both of them
