It’s almost like she has some bizarre form of kleptomania, but for stealing travel rather than trinkets.
Did she really “successfully” sneak on a plane if she was caught mid air and arrested upon landing?
It’s gotta be a little tough to even get on the plane. I haven’t read the article, but how does that even happen? It’s not clear to me where the vulnerability is in the process. I guess if she has fake airport credentials then she can move more freely through the airport than passengers that have to show their boarding pass and ID at various checkpoints.
Probably just hang out by the gate and wait for the gate agent to turn their back or walk away for a second. Then head in like you know what you’re doing and hangout in a bathroom until the plane fills up and look for an empty seat. Finding a plane that isn’t 100% full would be the challenge. Not sure how you’d get to the gate past security, that’s where the process fell down.
Maybe someone is trying to poison her. Free Svetlana.
there’s a video in the link of her boarding the plane. the two people checking boarding passes are on auto pilot and she walks in with a family.
Crazy that she managed to get to the gate at all though.
Most of the TSA budget has been rerouted to BP and ICE.
I’m not kidding, aside from maybe the ‘most’ part. I know some has.

I accidentally boarded a flight to Minneapolis that was boarding right next to the flight to Kansas City I wanted.
As I swiped my pass, I heard some negative beep. Walking down the gangway, I could hear the clerk saying “Hey, sir. Sir!” I pretended like I didn’t hear because I didn’t want to hassle with going back and scanning it right.
Got to my seat, and eventually of course someone had the same seat. Took us a bit to figure out I was on the Minneapolis flight. The pilot was pretty disturbed that I was allowed to board the plane. I got the feeling this incident was supposed to trigger some kind of official write up.
If I happened to be in an empty seat I would have been on my way to Minneapolis.

So when the gate agent couldn’t get your attention, she just said “Fuck it” and moved on?
TSA pre-check line was still in operation yesterday at LAX.
Apparently
I remember a story from the 70’s when a young man was flying to Oakland and instead found himself over the ocean on a flight to Auckland.

At LAX they had one gate for a flight to San Jose - delayed. I almost took a nap. Turns out that was to San Jose del Cabo, and my flight to San Jose, Costa Rica went up on the board super late for some reason. Good thing I checked around.
The complex biochemistry that sees coca plants make cocaine has been unpicked and replicated in a relative of the tobacco plant. Recreating the process by modifying other plants or microorganisms could lead to a way to manufacture the stimulant or produce chemically similar compounds with unique properties.
Cocaine cigs, mint tea cocaine, sunflowers with cocaine seeds…
