A man snuck onto 2 flights in 2 days by reportedly tailgating passengers with tickets, and managed to fly over 800 miles

A man managed to board two flights in two days without a ticket at Munich Airport.
A spokesperson for the Bavarian State Police told Business Insider that the 39-year-old Norwegian, who hasn't been named, is under investigation for trespassing and fare evasion.
On August 4, he boarded a plane to Hamburg, in the north of Germany, with other passengers but was apprehended and handed over to police before it took off, according to the spokesperson.
The following day, the spokesperson added, the man returned to the airport and was able to fly to the Swedish capital, Stockholm, despite not being properly booked onto the flight.
The German newspaper Bild reported that he raised suspicions in Stockholm because he wanted to return to Munich immediately after landing. The report added that it was a Lufthansa flight.
A spokesperson for Munich Airport told BI it's investigating how the man was "able to bypass the automated boarding pass check in front of the security checkpoint."

A Lufthansa spokesperson told BI the airline is aware of the case and in close contact with the authorities, but further details are unavailable as the investigation is ongoing. The Bavarian State Police spokesperson said it believes the man posed no danger.
This isn't the first time in recent months that somebody has managed to get onto a plane without a ticket.

A Cruise Through West Africa Reframed My Expectations of My Homeland
The rapidly brightening sky was painted with swaths of orange, pink, and yellow. The early-morning light revealed a city that seemed to be little more than a patchwork of haphazardly planned mid-rise buildings in varying states of repair, punctuated with sprawling bushes, trees quivering in the morning breeze, and lawns sloping toward the nearby sea. The nocturnal beep-beep of tree frogs gave way to the insistent chirp of morning birds that rose from the trees to swoop across the sky like animated chevrons. As I watched the Senegalese sunrise on my first day in Africa, I was vibrating with anticipation. Dakar was waking up, and I was here to witness it.
