You are stupid. Maybe her checked bag or even a piece of her carry on had something nefarious in it. Maybe she planted it and then figured out she didn't want to die.
No. You are stupid. Once she decides to deplane they will check her baggage. Or do you really think you are smarter than everyone else?

They don’t get off the plane? Really? Read up on the Pan Am explosion over Lockerbie, Scotland.

I’ve deplaned with checked bags stowed and they weren’t removed.

Plane was fully loaded and pushed away from the gate. Pilot came on and announced we were returning to the gate because a passenger had requested to deplane. We return to the gate and a lady in a hajib deplaned.
I didn't know you could do that. If that's the case, then if I'm on a plane that's sitting on the tarmac for 2 hours, can I request to deplane?

For this, I just may root for Auburn tomorrow against Florida.

She probably just needed to do some things.

As a guy that used to throw bags for a living, they're SUPPOSED to remove her checked luggage when she gets off. As a guy that used to throw bags for a living, I can also tell you it doesn't always happen.

Just to pile on here, as a guy currently trying to get hired as a pilot at a major airline and doing interview study. There is a pretty standard interview question for pilot candidates along the lines of "Someone in a burqa/hijab is in the back praying/acting weird/making the flight attendants and other passengers nervous prior to departure. WWYD?" The generally accepted response seems to be to mitigate the situation with minimal PR/social media impact to the company. Not that that makes anyone any safer. 777Tiger might have some good insight here.

Plenty of people will go to the bathroom on the plane as others board.
Lots will also put two carry on items in the overhead. How would one know if someone left something on the plane?

I’m sure the rate of compliance goes up when hijab/Muslims is involved.

A lot of times the people on the ground have no idea who is getting off, so to speak.
They're just told to find a bag with a certain tag on it. I worked smaller operations(Monroe, Shreveport, Baton Rouge). The difficulty finding the right bag increases with the size of the airplane, along with how close to departure time all of this goes down.

My post was referring to checked baggage only, which is documented.
ETA: We're dealing with bureaucracy laden regulations enforced by high school dropouts here. It's far from a catch all.
