9 Year Old Boy Sneaks Onto Plane Flies To Las Vegas

[Patrick]

Way to keep an eye on things TSA. That boy really wanted to see Cirque De Sole didn't he? I should sneak onto a plane to Vegas.

Maybe he just wanted to enter a casino and try his luck

It's even more surprising that he was discovered at Vegas. I would think that the security at Vegas airports would actually be more lax than that of Orlando, due to the way higher traffic at Vegas as a holiday destination.

It would be quite an amusing tale about incompetence, if it wasn't for the fact that homeland security remains such a huge issue in this day and age. And what would a 9 year old boy want to be going to Las Vegas for anyway??!

Sure makes you wonder who is paying attention here. This boy is obviously very smart, but given that he ran away and then wanted to go to Vegas, I would like to know what was going on with his family that motivated him to do so. It could be nothing and he is just very adventurous and a bit of a rebel, but I hope someone does check into things to make sure he wasn't fleeing from a bad home.

You do know this will lead to even a longer wait now at the airport. How they can let something like this happen is beyond me. Hopefully the idiots that let him slip by will be fired. What if that had been a terrorist or someone crazy? The whole situation could have been so much worse. If the kids parents are charged with negligence I will be shocked.

What? How does that even happen? I'm just amazed that a little boy could get through all that security.
I wonder if they little boy knew what he was doing, and where the heck were his parents?

The boy made a wise choice, Vegas is a great city so maybe he got lucky indeed...
