Russian Woman Charged After Sneaking onto Delta Flight to Paris

A Russian woman has been charged in federal court after evading security at JFK Airport and boarding a Delta flight to Paris without a boarding pass. Prosecutors allege that she managed to bypass multiple checkpoints and even blended in with flight crew members to gain access to the aircraft. Following her journey, she faced legal proceedings upon her return to the U.S., and reports indicated that she claimed to be seeking asylum in France. Authorities are now investigating the security lapses that allowed her to board the international flight undetected.
