I know airlines want you to get there early, but I am beginning to think "go to gate" does not mean anything. I used to think it meant the plane is waiting for you
Go to gate means go to gate. Want to have some fun? Don't go to the gate, miss your flight when it doesn't depart as late as you first thought it would, then ask the airline to help you.

Happened to me once at JFK. I learned my lesson.
