A Russian man who was found guilty of sneaking onto a Denmark to Los Angeles flight in November without a ticket or passport was neither the first nor the last to attempt such a scheme, a former federal security director at LAX told The Post.

The suspect, who told authorities he worked as an economist, was quickly taken into custody when the plane landed in LA, after officials found he did not have a passport and wasn’t listed on the passenger manifest.
