Delta Goodrem flying LHR-SYD. I was in J, she must have been in F, but we were at the carousel first waiting for luggage, and I can tell you, even famous attractive people miss sleep, get jet lagged, and look sh*t after long flights!

Re: Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging
I recently went Jet* to Melb from NC, and found my usual 2d (i think) isle seat I had checked into taken, the guy looked up at me and said my wife is in the isle opposite do you mind, I said no sure, and climbed over him to sit in the window, it was Greg Combet the pollie. Saw Simon O'Donnell the cricketer ( OOOOOOh Simie) at Brissy a few years ago, but my best brush was with Joe Cocker a long long time ago, in the Southern Cross hotel lift with a HUGE Bodyguard, stoned off his face, I was about 15 at the time and stepped into the lift with my Dad, I whispered to him "Dad thats Joe Cocker, you know - he came in thru the bathroom window" and my Dad looked him up and down horrified and said "How do YOU know MY Daughter", I died of embarrassment, the bodyguard laughed and Joe, he was too stoned to work it all out anyway lol, and I had some fast explaining to do with my Dad to relieve his stress at the thought of his 15 year old daughter with THAT MAN in her bathroom

I flew from BOS to Martha's Vineyard on Friday for the 4th of July weekend, and met my GF here. There was a guy on the plane, I recognised but could not put a name to.
Last night we went to dinner at a place called the Beach Plum in Menemsha, a little town on the island and this guy walked in with Maggie Gyllenhaal, It clicked he is her husband Peter Sarsgaard, also an actor.

Ooo, two of my fav screen people. I can't wait to see Maggie in Batman, a much wiser choice than Katie Holmes. And Sarsgaard is awesome in my opinion. Nice spot.

SYD/LAX I had Richard Branson sitting behind me. I was in 1K whilst he was in 3K. It must have pained him to be flying QF but until November comes along he does not have a lot of choice. And I think probably the only time I'll ever be sitting ahead of him...(you have to love duty travel!!)
He was escorted through passport control and then like the rest of the flight, had to wait 30 minutes for out luggage to arrive. The opulence of F comes tumbling to earth as soon as you get off the a/c.

I flew in J from ADL/PER last night with Dennis Commetti, the AFL commentator and had a chat whilst we were waiting to de-plane. He's much smaller on the TV, he's about 6'5" tall in the flesh.

Re: Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging
From my latest trip to NZ (of which TR is pending, if not beginning to break down on my door....)
Sat 28 Jun on SYD-BNE: The Queensland Firebirds, with Vicki Wilson. They sat pretty much all around the exit rows, though I did overhear that some of them would have preferred better seats . I confirmed the identities by asking a couple of them whilst walking in the jetbridge during disembarkation. They were returning from a game, but they didn't want to talk about the result.
Sun 29 Jun on SYD-BNE: The Wallabies. I noticed them whilst they were boarding, but I managed to talk to one of them whilst waiting for my baggage on the carousel. That's when I noted that sometimes priority baggage tagging does actually work sometimes, with the exception of all of the Wallabies sporting equipment coming out first.
