The woman accused of sneaking onto a Delta Air Lines flight from New York City to Paris last week returned to New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport Wednesday to face charges.

At the largest terminal at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on one of the busiest travel days of the year, security lapses enabled an unticketed passenger to board a plane to Paris in a shocking breach that one aviation expert said should serve as a “wake-up call” for the airline industry.

The woman who officials say boarded a flight without a ticket in New York during the Thanksgiving holiday and was detained upon landing in Paris has been charged with being a stowaway. Svetlana Dali appeared in federal court in Brooklyn for arraignment on Thursday afternoon.
