A woman allegedly boarded a flight from Nashville to Los Angeles without a boarding pass earlier this month.

The flyer bypassed the boarding pass and ID check by walking through an unmanned section of the security checkpoint, the Transportation Security Administration said.

    So I get yelled at for forgetting to take out my kindle, while they’re missing a whole person slipping past security. Smh

      Dude when the whole security theater of TSA and ‘the terrorists’ who want to destroy the US has been pandering for twenty years, these are news.

    This doesn’t surprise me tbh. These medium sized airports at off hours will have like one of 6 TSA lanes opened with four agents being kept busy working the single line. There’s a ton of barely supervised roped off area. At my local airport I could definitely skip the document check by casually ducking under the rope into the bin line. Biggest risk would be someone else in the line looking up from their phones at the wrong time.
