Since only a small percentage of IETF people seem to add their arrival information into the wiki (frustrated with user interface, privacy concerns, page locked whenever they check, whatever), it's likely that you'll just stumble across IETF people at the airport even if you don't see anyone on the wiki with arrival time close to yours.  I suppose if there are really grumpy IETF people that don't want anyone saying hello to them, they'll just have to wear some non-IETF shirt, or tolerate being said hello to.
