    Okay, now I remember the music part of it. Didnt she do a video with Nick Leche or however you spell it on the boardwalk on Cony Island? I knew about walk to remember because a girl forced me to see it in Utah with her but it turned out to be a pretty good flick.

    Has her career tanked so much that she has to fly Southwest? Jessica Biel flies Eos...

    Mandy Moore stars in a recent movie starring Robin Williams and John Krasinski (Jim on The Office) which is a pretty big deal. So no, she's doing pretty well. :)

    That brings up another question: do airlines comp celebs the way other businesses do? I would think an exposure-hungry startup like Eos would gladly fly Jessica Biel for nothing, but what about AA or Delta?

    If they do it is rare. I have sold some full fares and lower class tickets to celebs in the past. One flipped because she bought a 150 dollar same day ticket and I would not upgrade her in fact. I laughed at it.

    STL-CMH, good point, not exactly a sector with much high end demand so if you're not going to charter what other choices are there?

    As for comps, I can't speak for the industry as a whole but I do get the impression that the upmarket startups (and Eos in specific) 'hosted' some VIP passengers to get word of mouth in the celebrity/banking/executive demographic. The ROI on this is likely quite good at such niche players because comping, say, Jessica Biel or Sarah Ferguson or some top investment banker so they tell their friends to fly Eos can be alot better cost/benefit than running some ads, the response to which is hard to quantify.
