A stowaway secretly boarded a flight from New York City to Paris just before Thanksgiving, and was caught going from bathroom to bathroom on the plane because she did not have a seat.
The Daily Show: Ears Edition podcast on iHeartRadio poked fun at the incident in a comedy bit as part of their latest episode, "Biden’s Pardons, DIY Airport Security, Book Bans."
Comedian Ronny Chieng was first to comment on 57-year-old Svetlana Dali's (per The Guardian) successful attempt in boarding a Delta flight "at the height of holiday travel" without a ticket.
"Okay, first of all, that's not what a stowaway is. Okay, a stowaway has to hug the wheel or hang onto the wing like Tom Cruise. If you're just inside the plane without a seat, you're not a stowaway. You're just losing at musical chairs. Okay. And if security is so laxed, hey, maybe I should have just left that bottle of shampoo in my backpack instead of trying to smuggle out my a**."
He continued, flabbergasted that the woman even got past security.
"How did she do this? Airport security is so complicated now. Like they have ropes and the dogs and the machines and people and the scanner... Like what kind of secret agent acrobatics did she have to do to get past all of that?"
