Delta Air Lines will now fly the Russian woman who stowed away on a flight to Paris last week back to New York on Wednesday, a Paris airport official told CNN. The woman was due to leave France on a flight at 2:30 p.

A woman was taken into custody after the stowaway flew aboard a Delta Air Lines flight from New York's JFK International Airport to Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, the airline said.

It remains unclear how the person managed to bypass security at JFK Airport and board the Delta Air Lines flight to Paris.
