"Pasar por mi" is commonly used in South America at least, for picking people up. It's literally that they are going to pass by the airport for/because of you. It's a pretty easy jump from that to "come around to get you".
"Paso por ti a las____" is the most common way I hear people say "I'll come by at ___ to pick you up".
