Serious security breach at CPH.

A curious story. It'd be interesting to know how did he get through the few layers of security and checks which are in place and onboard? The swiss cheese model had one too many holes in it...

After departure, he kept wandering around the plane, switching seats and trying to talk to other passengers, who ignored him, according to the complaint.

He also asked for two meals while the flight attendants served passengers food, and he allegedly attempted to eat chocolate that belonged to the cabin crew.

I’m picturing a scene from the Bevis & Butthead movie circa mid-90s (minus the coughpit intrusion).

Reminds me of the final airport scene in Love Actually (or should this be From Russia with Love Actually?)
