A woman who famously stowed away on a flight from New York to Paris last week was removed from her return flight after causing a disturbance. The incident unfolded on Delta Flight 265 from Paris to New York on Saturday.

The Stowaway's Journey

The woman, initially undetected, successfully bypassed security checkpoints at JFK Airport and completed a full security screening before boarding Delta Flight 264 to Charles de Gaulle Airport.

Upon arrival in Paris, authorities took her into custody. She was denied entry to France due to lacking proper travel documents or a visa. She was then to be returned to the United States.

Return Flight Disruption

Delta confirmed a delay on the return flight due to an unruly passenger. Although details surrounding the disturbance remain limited, a source confirmed the passenger was the same stowaway.

Delta's Response

Delta Airlines has launched a full investigation into the incident, emphasizing their commitment to safety and security. The airline is collaborating with aviation stakeholders and law enforcement to prevent future occurrences.

Ongoing Investigation

The specifics of how the woman bypassed ticketing stations and the nature of the disturbance on the return flight remain under investigation.

The public prosecutor for Pontoise, north of Paris, has yet to comment on the events.
