History

JFK is the top international air passenger gateway to the United States and is also the leading freight gateway to the country by value of shipments.

Anthony Stark landed here back from the Pentagon, and was very well received by Pepper Potts and Happy Hogan^[1].
When Happy quit his job with Tony Stark, he took a one way flight to Shannon, Ireland to get away from his life at Stark Industries^[2].
When Jasper Sitwell was searching for Morgan Stark, he received a notice from Nick Fury telling him that Morgan was being escorted onto a private plane by some of the Maggia's hired guns. Rushing to the airport, Jasper managed to incapacitate the Maggia gunsels and save Morgan, who told Jasper what he had done^[3].

Notes

• Prior to the Kennedy Assasination, JFK Airport was named Idlewild Airport after a local country club in the area. Reader's will note it referenced several times in Marvel Comics prior to the airport changing it's name^[4].
