Airport Gate Passes for Military Passenger Family Members

The TSA has put out a security directive pertaining to Military Passengers. Family members of military passengers may now be given a pass for the following reasons:

1. To escort the military passenger to the gate
2. To meet a military passenger's inbound arrival at the gate.

The family member can now go to the airline that the military member is flying on and receive a pass to go to the gate. The family member will be required to have a pass and a photo ID to get past the security checkpoint.
