I've never known that.
You don't get past the check in desk without a passport and ticket in
any airport I've been in this last 15 years
Eh? I've been poncing around Heathrow (T1,2,3) and Gatwick (N+S) terminals
right up to the public side of the secure entrance to departures for years,
including a couple of months ago. Mostly bored whilst waiting to collect
someone or else seeing someone off.
I think at LHR T3, there *may* a sign that may say "ticket holders only" at
check-in but no-one cares and it's open plan anyway, and as I've been
accompanying minors (nephews) or relatives who don't speak English, I had a
good excuse anyway.
Then again I wasn't fiddling about inside a rucksack...
Cheers
