Seven-year-old boards plane ✈ without ticket

A runaway seven-year-old girl managed to board a flight out of Geneva Airport, despite not having a ticket.

She had escaped from her parents at Geneva's central station on Sunday and travelled by train to the airport, Geneva Airport said in a statement.

The child was able to slip through security checks by "taking advantage of her small size" and standing near adults, the airport said.

She was turned back by airport staff as she got closer to the departure gate, but managed to get on to the plane "by sneaking into a passage accessible only to a child of this size".
