Similar Incidents:
This isn't the first time a stowaway has managed to slip onto a Delta flight. In a similar incident in March, a man snuck onto a flight from Salt Lake City using a photo of a passenger's boarding pass. However, his plan was thwarted because the flight was full.
This incident raises serious concerns about airport security protocols and procedures.
