On my flight back from England in 2003, Virgin Atlantic bumped me up to first class (which I'm still kvelling about) and I was directed to a discreet little "first class" security line which was much shorter than the regular.
I still had to walk like a mile (I'm not kidding, and I'm used to walking goodly distances, too) to my gate from there, and mix with the hoi polloi until we boarded, but by gosh and golly I got Special Security Treatment because I was a First Class passenger.
(Let me pause to reflect that, in fact, a large number of the 9/11 hijackers flew first class.)
Was it Diana Ross that didn't work for?
And Aaron Sorkin, just as his celebrity was at its most recent apex.
And Paul McCartney in Tokyo, IIRC. And didn't Christian Slater get caught with a gun a few years back?
Stacey Keach with cocaine in his shoes.
Clearly celebrity is not proof against customs, but on the upside, you'll likely not be doing much time if you're a celebrity.
Yeah, but everyone except hard-core fans couldn't pick AS from a line-up.
Those other people have no such excuse.
hey, Allyson. that banner that Karri is using at the fuselage, is that something you guys did or her? i was thinking of putting it in my eljay user info to help you guys pimp.
tiggy, I made the banner and you are certainly free to use it at will with our most effusive thanks.
Though I kinda wish I'd had more time to spend on it. It's looking a little low-tech to me now.

no way! i think it looks great. the Oceanic logo is hypnotizing.

Whitney, Bobby and the joints in Hawaii neither. BUT I think all these examples are just the ones that got caught.
