This episode of the Things I Learned Last Night podcast covers the incredible story of Marilyn Hartman, a woman who repeatedly was able to sneak onto commercial airline flights without a ticket starting in 2002. She was first caught in 2014 on a flight from San Jose to LAX but claims she successfully snuck onto around 30 flights before getting caught. After being caught, she continued finding ways to bypass airport security and sneak onto flights, getting caught multiple more times over the years. She was even able to fly from Chicago to London in 2018 before being sent back.
Her methods seemed to involve blending in with other passengers and taking advantage of lapses in TSA and gate agent diligence. She claims it was due to trauma and feeling an urge to "flight" instead of "fight," but she also seems to enjoy the challenge. After her final arrest in 2020, she claimed to be done with her airplane-hopping days.
