Investigators are trying to determine how a woman got past multiple security checkpoints this week at New York’s JFK International Airport and boarded a plane to Paris, apparently hiding in the aircraft’s bathrooms during the flight. The stowaway didn’t have a boarding pass but completed a security screening and bypassed two identity verification and boarding status stations to board a Delta aircraft, according to the Transportation Security Administration. The Tuesday incident happened on one of the busiest travel days of the year. Nearly 2.7 million passengers traveled on airplanes that day, ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday, according to TSA data. Here’s what we know: The stowaway was not carrying any prohibited items, according to a TSA spokesperson. It’s unclear how the individual was able to bypass boarding stations before getting on the plane.
