Congratulations to the eagle-eyed passenger who spotted Jenn-air from the economy block on the KLM flight from Naples to Paris.
Because it is human nature to think that the well-known person you see is just someone who looks like them.
And so I have the eternal gratitude of the Twenty-Somethings I sent running after a truck with a partying Lewis Hamilton on board in Barbados.
Now those of us who spend our lives travelling will have had their fair share of invitations to travel business class.
And, of course, we never like to look a gift horse in the mouth.
And the option of folding down your seat for a kip on an overnighter from say Istanbul to the Maldives on a Turkish Airlines flight is always welcome.
Even if you do have to sleep next to a baldy, rounded, tattooed Irishman, sorry Brian McCarthy, I do love you.
And yes, Champagne, does help!
Mrs Brown’s boys
Now business class is for executives, international business people and travelling rewiers.
So it is refreshing to know that Mrs Brown travels business class too.
As we discovered on a transatlantic flight from Dublin to Orlando.
When we peeked behind the curtain.
Now Mammy’s alter ego, the famously generous Brendan O’Carroll, treats his friends to an annual golf trip to his home in Florida.
Although I’d recommend he review one guest, the boorish Brian McFadden.
Who regaled us with his views on the runway coach, and no Brian, Dumb and Dumber Too isn’t feckin crap.
Although thanks for sharing.
High-flying Jenny
Now we don’t know who was sitting on Jennifer Lopez’s inside on her economy flight to Paris.
Only that her on-off partner Ben Affleck wasn’t.
But the general consensus is chapeaux to the 54-year-old Jenn-air from the economy air block.
For not falling back on her £315m fortune to use a private jet.
With the KLM Naples-Paris flight costing as little as £141 compared with £828 for business.
And Jimmy from the Block
KLM, of course, will offer you the best of services with their economy class with its ground and cabin crews catering for your every need.
As we found when our little flier arrived at the check-in desk and her ticket accreditation wasn’t on their records.
But they allowed her through gratis.
On account of who she was flying with, although I didn’t make a fuss.
Because after all I’m just Jimmy from the Block.
