(They don't let you go meet the planes any more. Only ticketed passengers are allowed into the terminal.)

Not true. In the future if you need to head to the airport again be armed with the following information.

Military Family Member Gate Passes

Family members who want to accompany a military service member to the boarding gate or greet them at the arrival gate may receive passes to enter the secure area of the airport. While the pass provides non-flying family members access to the gate area, they will still have to pass through the security checkpoint.

Interested military family members should contact their air carrier representative at the departure/arrival airport for proper local procedures.
