A 57-year-old Russian woman who stowed away on a Delta flight from New York to Paris will return to the U.S. on Tuesday, accompanied by six U.S. marshals. She was removed from a flight back to the U.S. after causing a disturbance. The woman managed to bypass security at John F. Kennedy International Airport, raising concerns about airport procedures. The Transportation Security Administration is reviewing security footage and preparing a civil case against her. Delta Airlines is investigating how the woman boarded the flight without a ticket but has not provided details on the incident. The TSA cannot file criminal charges but may refer the case to the Justice Department.
