The body was discovered on a Boeing 787-10 aircraft that had flown from Chicago to Maui, highlighting the extreme risks stowaways face while attempting to access this precarious hiding spot.
United Airlines confirmed that the wheel well, where the body was found, is accessible only from outside the aircraft, raising concerns about how the individual managed to get there.
The Federal Aviation Administration reported that over 77% of stowaways who attempt illegal rides on aircraft do not survive, emphasizing the dangers of such desperate acts.
As flights ascend, conditions worsen for stowaways, with oxygen levels dropping severely and outside temperatures falling to as low as 80 degrees below zero, creating life-threatening scenarios.
