A Russian woman who stowed away on a Delta Air Lines flight from New York to Paris last week is expected to face at least one federal charge after she returned to the United States Wednesday, according to multiple law enforcement officials.
A Russian woman who stowed away on a Delta Air Lines flight from New York to Paris last week was arrested Wednesday night, the FBI said in a statement. Svetlana Dali, whom French authorities identified as the stowaway, is expected to face at least one federal charge after she returned to the United States Wednesday, according to multiple law enforcement officials. She is expected to be charged with being a stowaway on a vessel or aircraft without consent, and could face up to five years in prison. Dail is expected to make her initial court appearance Thursday, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York said. The plane that left Paris’ Charles de Gaulle Airport landed shortly after 5 p.m. ET at John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens, New York. Dali appeared calm and compliant throughout the flight, according to a CNN producer who was on the plane. Dali declined to speak with CNN after landing. Representatives from TSA and law enforcement both plan to question Dali. At least a dozen law enforcement officials from different agencies were standing outside the plane’s gate, and Dali remained on the plane while all other passengers got off. Aerials from CNN affiliate WABC showed at least one car marked as police next to the gate outside.
