Picking up Unaccompanied Minor
I have to pick up a child flying to to terminal 3. I would like to go to the gate to meet her as she deplanes. Are there exceptions to get through security without a boarding document?
Usually its at the Gate's
Usually its at the Gate's discretion. All of the airlines will issue you a pass to allow you to pickup your child. If they dont, they will assign an employee to escort your child to you.

To whom it may
To whom it may concern,
Myself and my Husband recently travelled home from JFK airport in New York.
We purchased some bottles of spirits in the duty free and they were placed
in a sealed bag for us. Our journey was from JFK to Amsterdam and on to
Cork. On arrival at security in Amsterdam our purchases were taken away from us
because we were told they were not allowed under European law. We never
tampered with the seal on the bag so we could see no reason for this. It
cost us $47 to see our purchases go in the bin. We would like to know the
following:
1. What is the difference between boarding a plane in the USA and boarding
a plane in Europe. As these items were untouched.
2. Why is this not known to all travellers of these regulations. There are
no obvious billboards or leaflets to inform travellers of these
rules.
3. Why did the staff at JFK not inform travellers of this. We asked when
we picked up our purchases was it okay to travel from Amsterdam to
Cork with them and were told yes.
We were very annoyed as you can imagine at this as we were travelling all
night from the USA and we purchased these items as gifts. We are now out of
pocket by $47 over your neglect to inform travellers of the procedures. We
understand that measures have to be taken because of terrorist threats but
we thought we had taken these measures by having a undisturbed sealed bag of
liquids.
Thank you for taking time to read this and I await your reply.

Essentially the same thing
Essentially the same thing happened to me returning from Spain to the US. There should be some information on the TSA site to warn passengers they will not be able to keep any liquids purchased in the duty free shops. I work for the airline and had no idea this was going to happen.
this happened to me too!
The same thing happened to me to in december however i paid $150 so im £75 out of pocket and it was a christmas present. I was however allowed to take my perfume on board even though it was purchased at the same time and on the same receipt as the alcohol.I dont quite understand why one was confiscated without the other as they are both liquids. I was travelling from jfk to manchester via schipol. I have tried to complain to schipol an received a very apologetic letter which although it was nice to get a reply... im still out of pocket. I feel this is happening to more people than we think. I intend to write to schipol again but would like the address to complain to JFK duty free but cant seem to find an email address or complaints proceedure anywhere. Was wondering if u had any details to complain to JFK because I agree with you that ultimately they should be responsible for informing us before we make purchases. I would be very grateful if you have a contact point for JFK if you could forward it to me michelledennett@hotmail.co.uk. If i get any further with my complaint I will let You know.
Many thanks Michelle x
