The passenger, who was meant to be on a flight to Belfast, boarded an easyJet flight bound for Jersey at Liverpool John Lennon Airport on Monday morning.
The error was discovered before the plane took off and the passenger was later able to board their correct flight.
Another passenger posted about the incident on social media and branded security 'pathetic'.
