Over 90 airlines operate from JFK, offering flights to all inhabited continents and destinations far and wide. According toCirium, an aviation analytics company, the five top international airlines operating at JFK by inbound and outbound flights in 2024 are Virgin Atlantic, British Airways, American Airlines, JetBlue, and Delta Air Lines.
