How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Francis International Airport is Liberty City's airport in Dukes, and entering the runways earns the player a wanted level.
The real place
JFK opened in 1948 as Idlewild and was renamed after President Kennedy. The game's name plays on JFK, its terminal copies Eero Saarinen's TWA Flight Center, and its runway layout is taken from LaGuardia Airport.
Visiting
The TWA Flight Center is now the TWA Hotel, and visitors can usually look round its lobby. Take the AirTrain to Terminal 5.
