Following the tragic discovery of a dead body in the wheel well of a United Airlines plane, authorities are investigating how the individual gained access.
The body was found after United Flight 202 from Chicago O'Hare landed at Kahului Airport. Accessing the wheel well poses extreme risks associated with cold temperatures and lack of oxygen.
The Maui Police Department confirmed they are "actively investigating" the incident, emphasizing the dangers faced by potential plane stowaways who hide in unpressurized areas.
Historically, stowaways attempting to travel via the wheel wells of aircraft face grave risks, with a high fatality rate due to extreme temperatures and deficient oxygen.
