Since this related to Randy's Mileage Run, I figure this is vaguely miles related....

Randy arrives in LGW on Friday morning, and I'd very much like to go out to the airport to welcome him. Randy, however, is not planning on coming groundside, since he doesn't want to clear customs. With his itinerary, probably not a bad choice.

I'm not travelling tomorrow, so don't have a ticket or boarding pass. I realise that I can buy a refundable ticket when I get there in a worst-case scenario, but would prefer to use a "security pass" of the type they issue to the parents of unaccompanied minors.

Are these still being issued post-9/11? Does anyone know what the procedure is to secure one? USAirways customer relations were unhelpful, as was the USAirways press office -- well, more clueless than unhelpful. The res. agent here in the UK said that it would probably be possible, the one in the US wasn't sure.

Given that Randy's flight arrives at 5:55am, I'd like to know for sure before setting off.
