Seems clear from the article, the cello had it's own SM account.

Did he give it a fake name? Yeah I could see where this would play havoc with manifests and lots of things.

I do see Delta's point. Musician wasn't just "buying a ticket" for his cello, they were engaging in a small lie, trying to reap benefits off it also. On the flip side of it, I get the point that it seems unfair.

C'est la vie.
