In this day and age, how on earth is an individual able to get through TSA and the gate without a valid boarding ticket. Worse, on entering the aircraft how is it BA cabin crew did not identify an individual did not have a valid boarding ticket and corresponding allocated seat row number. Surely, a problem arises when the cabin fills up and the individual is sitting in a valid passengers preallocated seat.

This is is critical failure in passenger security and BA also got questions to answer. Granted the flight had marshals onboard but nontheless this is a serious breach of passenger security processes.

Three check points obviously breached. First at TSA airs ide entry point. Second at the gate. Third at aircraft entry with cabin crew checking tickets.
