A woman who managed to bypass multiple security checkpoints at New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK) as a stowaway on a Delta flight is now set to remain in France after causing a disturbance during the flight back to the United States. On November 30, 2024, reports emerged that the woman, who has not been publicly identified, approached several security checkpoints undetected before boarding the flight to France. During the return flight, she allegedly became disruptive, leading the cabin crew to call for assistance upon landing. According to sources, after the disturbance, authorities decided that she would not be allowed to re-enter the United States and will remain in France for further investigation. French authorities have taken charge of the situation, ensuring her safe handling post-incident. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is conducting an investigation into the security breach at JFK Airport, with officials reviewing CCTV footage and procedures that allowed the stowaway to pass without detection. Delta Air Lines emphasized passenger safety and implemented immediate reviews of their security protocols in response to the incident. The judge presiding over the case stated, ‘This incident raises serious questions about airport security and the measures in place to protect passengers.’ This event has sparked wider discussions about air travel safety, especially concerning security regulations and their enforcement at busy airports.
