Instead, the actor is typically seen walking alone at the airport, or at the very least, with one staff member of the airport escorting him to the gate so he doesn’t create a scene.
An example of his humble attitude took place back in 2015 when the actor walked the airport without security on the day of his birthday. As expected, he stopped for picture and looked completely calm throughout the experience.
Another moment went viral of Keanu’s conversation at the airport with a young fan. Not only did he answer all of his questions, but the actor was showing the love in return, taking the time to ask questions of his own.
He is a complete class act, and that also holds true when he doesn’t sign autographs, as we’re going to see in the video below.

Keanu Reeves Acts Like A Regular Person In Public Situations, And Doesn’t Use His Stardom
At his own party, Keanu Reeves didn’t want to use his celeb status, so he decided to wait outside for 20-minutes in line… The actor is a respectful class act, and the same held true for an experience a fan witnessed at a movie theater. According to the onlooker, Keanu did his very best to accommodate others.
“Keanu Reeves doesn’t have to wait in line for anything in LA if he doesn’t want to, but he stood out there with us for about half an hour.
Inside, he sat near us on the very end on the aisle, accompanied by a woman who I suppose was his date. He’s really quite tall, at least 6′ 1″, and the woman behind him was very short.”
The Ranker fan story continues, “He realized this and asked her if she could see around him. She couldn’t, so he scrunched down and asked “How about now?”
and continued to do so until he was almost out of the seat. He ended up switching places with his companion so the woman behind him had a clearer view.”
There are many, many other stories in a similar light, showing Keanu’s selfless ways. Without a doubt, those stories will only continue.
