All Nippon Airways Flight NH175 to Tokyo’s Narita Airport turned around for Los Angeles International Airport LAX due to an “unauthorised person” on the plane.
“During the flight, the cabin crew became aware that one of the passengers boarded the incorrect flight and notified the pilot,” the airline said in a statement. “As part of the airline’s security procedure, the pilot in command decided to return to the originating airport, where the passenger was disembarked.”
Chrissy Teigen an American model and passenger onboard NH175, tweeted about this event.
a flying first for me: 4 hours into an 11 hour flight and we are turning around because we have a passenger who isn’t supposed to be on this plane. Why…why do we all gotta go back, I do not know

Why did we all get punished for this one person’s mistake? Why not just land in Tokyo and send the other person back? How is this the better idea, you ask? We all have the same questions.

They keep saying the person had a United ticket. We are on ANA. So basically the boarding pass scanner is just a beedoop machine that makes beedoop noises that register to nowhere
