9-year old boy sneaks onto plane, flies to Las Vegas

- 9 year old is smarter than airport security, gets on plane to Las Vegas. In this case, what happens in Vegas, definitely doesn’t stay there.

FULL REPORT: 9-year-old sneaks onto plane at Minneapolis-St, Paul airport (KARE 11)

Pat Hogan, spokesperson for the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP), confirmed the incident to KARE, but says it wasn't the result of an airport shortcoming.

"At this point, this is a Delta and TSA issue," Hogan tells KARE. "This is a rare incident."

MSP officials say they've reviewed security footage and at this point do not believe he was carrying a boarding pass.

"MSP officials say he took someone's luggage off a carousel (on Wednesday), ordered food at a pre-security restaurant, asked the server to watch his luggage while he went to the restroom, but never returned," KARE says in its report.
