Monkey Business: Man Smuggles Monkey into NYC Under Hat aboard Spirit Airlines

Posted in: Fun,Travel

I can’t hear you sir, I have a banana in my ear. Or was it a monkey? Once again truth is stranger than fiction as a man smuggles in a monkey into the US under his hat.. The monkey adventure began in Lima, Peru when the man boarded a Spirit Airlines flight to Fort Lauderdale, FL. After several hours and most likely airline delays, he caught a connecting flight to La Guardia Airport in NYC with his simian side kick under his hat. How could they ever have missed him?

“Other passengers asked the man if he knew he had a monkey on him,” she said.

The monkey spent the remainder of the flight in the man’s seat and behaved well, said Russell, who didn’t know how it skirted customs and security. (Yahoo News)

So much for airline security.
