Svetlana Dali, 57, was convicted of being a stowaway on a Delta flight from JFK to Paris, having sneaked aboard without a boarding pass. On November 26, 2024, she managed to evade security by disguising herself within a group of airline employees, later hiding in a bathroom. Her actions were captured on video, which played a crucial role in the case. Dali faces sentencing guidelines of zero to six months but has already spent over five months in custody. A sentencing date has yet to be established by U.S. District Judge Ann Donnelly.
