Not particularly noteworthy for a stand alone article, an entry at List of wheel-well stowaway flights is sufficient. MilborneOne (talk) 16:30, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The event passes WP:EVENTCRIT #2. These incidents are rare enough that they cause concern and garner worldwide coverage. Notability is also not temporary. WP:NTEMP Notability is not temporary; once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" in accordance with the general notability guideline, it does not need to have ongoing coverage.. This particular article is only about two weeks old. I removed the PROD placed by the nominator and 25 minutes later there was an AfD. Alacrity is not necessary. WP:NORUSH WP:SIGCOV exists LA Times, San Francisco Gate, Irish Examiner, The incident was the first death of this kind that had never happened before at SFO (San Francisco International Airport) I will update the article if I have time.

Comment - Doesnt appear to be a wide coverage of the events and nothing to indicate it is any more noteworthy than others listed in the List of wheel-well stowaway flights Not sure what the issue is with age of article, if it is clearly not notable then it should be nominated, wikipedia is not a repository for subjects that may be notable one day if we wait long enough. In reality these events have a local coverage but rarely any continual coverage and fall into the not news area. MilborneOne (talk) 18:48, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. No lasting significance. Wikipedia is not a newspaper. Clarityfiend (talk) 18:55, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No indication that this has any significance beyond the other events at List of wheel-well stowaway flights that preclude this content from being included there. Reywas92^Talk
Delete – the event is entirely within the scope of List of wheel-well stowaway flights; I can't see why a stand-alone article should be warranted to this particular occurrence. --Deeday-UK (talk) 12:47, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
