Perhaps the more amazing part, he’s done it before. And how did he get to the airport?

A 10-year-old boy apprehended last year after a flying to Texas as a stowaway was caught Tuesday trying to board another flight out of Sea-Tac Airport.

Semaj Booker was a short stroll away from a departing Southwest Airlines flight when, just after 6:30 a.m., a gate agent stopped the boy. Airport authorities returned the boy to his mother’s home in Tacoma, from where he’d been reported missing.

Transportation Security Administration officials are looking into how Semaj made it through a TSA checkpoint without a boarding pass just before 5 a.m., agency spokesman Dwayne Baird said.
