Getting security pass for husband and baby
Hi all.
I am flying out of the International terminal at SFO (on JAL).
Is it possible for my husband and infant to accompany me through security? I would like to nurse my son before I depart. After I nurse him, dad would take him home, and I'd get on the plane.
What do I need to do to get a pass? Who do I speak to, when does it need to be done, etc.?
Thanks!

Is it possible for you to nurse him before you go through security? The airline may decide that they won't give you a gate pass due to the fact you are on an international flight..

Go with a refundable ticket. I've done it twice before and it works fine. You might have to float the charge on your CC for a few days (they can charge in a day or two... but refunds can take a week or more).

In response to some of the replies to your other thread over in the UA forum, I would suggest avoiding the PDF forgery. Many TSA stations have scanners that read the barcodes for tickets, paper and cell phone boarding passes.
If Mr. KSinNYC is a member of the RCC, you can try to get him a pass as RCC members are allowed to visit the lounge for business reasons. Check out this reply and/or thread about RCC
Good luck!
