Quite a few actually...my dad worked for delta for 30 years before retirement. Flying BTR to ATL, Shaq was difficult to Not recognize in his last year at LSU. It was just him and 2 hotties a little before he was drafted.
David Justice and Halle Berry on a flight out of Atlanta back when they were married.
Sat right next to Jerry Clower on a flight to Kingsport, TN.
Mr.T, Spike Lee, Brandy, Raven Symone, several ESPN personalities Chris Fowler, Bob Ryan and John Clayton.
That's just who was on the same flight as me...list gets much longer with who I've seen in Airports. Lots of Pro Athletes (Favre, Archie, Smoltz...) some musicians (Hagar, LL Cool J, Dee Snider...)
Halle Berry would def be the most famous, but that was mid 90s before she was super A-list. I actually recognized David Justice first living in Atlanta at the time.

Toni Kukoc
Richard Jenkins
Mike Ditka
Pedro Martinez
Recognized all of them, since I’m bringing them up.
Kukoc was in front of me and actually asked me if he could recline his seat. Man you’re 7 feet tall, it’s coach, go ahead.
Some band members were on a flight that I didn’t recognize. 3 different teen girls went up and asked for pics/autographs. Still no idea who they were. Thought about asking a flight attendant but they realized I didn’t really care

2005 or so I barely missed my crazy early flight and caught a later one. While the later flight was boarding I was on the phone with one of our company admin's who was helping me. As I was on the phone, I was walking around and another guy was doing almost the same thing. I recognized him pretty quickly as Chad Lowe but didn't make a deal of it. Only gave him a head nod. Well it's finally time for me and Chad to board the plane and one of the workers comes running down the bridge and tells me they upgraded me to first class. I was quite confused but happy about it. I later realized she thought I was travelling with him.
