Jacksonville International Airport- JIA Since 1968-See the 1st Passenger Flight arrive at JIA

[@CC-kk3zz]

As a 72 year old who grew up in Jacksonville I remember my Dad going on trips from Imeson, picking up my grandparents at Imeson, no jet bridges. My 1st plane trip was from Imeson on a Delta DC7. I remember when JIA opened, added the current airline counters after I moved away then new concourses. Only the center lobby remains of the original 1968 terminal. It's an easy airport to navigate after living in LA and using LAX.

I remember sears at Inesi when I was a kid. My parents never told it used to be the airport. When I asked them about it long years ago they said “ oh yeah that was the old airport you didn’t know that ?” 🙄😂

What happened to Immeson?

It became an industrial park for warehouses and offices.
