Are parents allowed to go with a person to the boarding area of a plane?

Question

I was just wondering if that's possible,because I'll probably end up getting lost if I have to go on my own after security. Is there a certain age where a person can't do that?

Answer 1

Yes parents can go with you to the gate.  The just need to get a security clearance pass.  It is very easy.  After 12 you can fly alone, without having to have a stewardess stay with you, but your parents can still walk you to the gate.  I am assuming that this is until you are 17.  My daughter is 15 and I can still get a security pass to walk her to the gate when she goes to visit her dad.  Also, the parent meeting you can also get a pass to meet you at the gate, although it is usually easier to just meet at baggage claim.  Don't worry about it!

Answer 2

For teens under 18, usually 1 parent is allowed to go to the gate.  Stop at the airline ticket counter for the parent to get a pass to show at the security checkpoint.

Answer 3

If you are not travelling then you cannot go beyond security.

Answer 4

your parent or guardian can go past the security but not into the airplane to tell u bye. u have to be ten or older to fly by your self.
