Has anyone accompanied their parent/child to the gate?
Specifically Newark EWR airport. I saw online that there’s a United counter you can go at all US airports with your passport and ask for a gate pass to accompany minors and seniors, but I’ve also seen old posts of people saying it’s airport dependent which is confusing.
My dad is pretty old and knows zero English but he needs to go back home next month. I’d rather not buy an entire flight for myself just to take him because it’s so expensive nowadays, and he pretty much knows what to do once he arrives at the airport in his home country, so I’m really only needed for the stuff here in America.
So I’m wondering if anyone has successfully done gotten a gate pass and accompanied a family member?
