On my two separate NZ status runs last year (which were only a few days apart from one another), my OOL>MEL QF881 legs were both managed by a very lovely CSM, Nickie, based out of ADL. When I turned up for the second QF881 flight, Nikkie looked at my boarding pass, then looked back at me and after a split second of confusion/realisation, beamed a huge smile and quickly followed up saying “Hello again Mr Brew! What are you doing back here?!”
On a mini-run in June last year, I flew back to back flights QF592 SYD>OOL, QF595 OOL>SYD and QF455 SYD>MEL. CSM Toby and his team were managing QF592. Turned out they were also running QF595. As I deplaned in SYD, we joked about me no longer stalking them... unless, of course, they were managing QF455. Which they were. Suffice it to say, after having chased the same crew on 3 consecutive legs, Toby wanted to have a good long chat once we were at cruising altitude
And for last weekend's HKG Lounge Crawl, I was on the June 8th QF29 MEL>HKG flight in whY. Upon boarding QF30 the next evening, I immediately recognised the crew as being the same group from the previous day. Before we pushed back, I'd already had 3 crew - including the CSM and the Cabin Manager who'd been looking after me in Y - seek me out to say hello, welcome me back aboard and ask why on Earth I was with them again so soon?!?! It also gave me a good chance to warn them about the 5 other "troublemakers" with me in J
