A federal grand jury last week convicted a south Florida man of wire fraud and entering a secure area of an airport by false pretenses.

Tiron Alexander, 35, posed as a flight attendantk booking dozens of free lights between 2018 and 2024 using “an airline carrier’s website” only available to pilots and flight attendants, the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida said.

On that website, Alexander booked 34 flights, but evidence was presented at trial showing that he booked more than 120 free flights on three other airline carriers.

“Alexander claimed through the airline carrier’s website application process — a process that required an applicant to select whether they were a pilot or flight attendant and provide their employer, date of hire, and badge number information — that he worked for seven different airlines and had approximately 30 different badge numbers and dates of hire,” the US Attorney’s Office said.

The Transportation Security Administration investigated the case, and sentencing has been set for August 25.

He faces up to 30 years in prison, WFOR said.
