I have never seen small planes at these airports. Are they not allowed there or is it just expensive that they can't afford it? What happens if a 20 year old PPL only pilot wants to land at JFK or O'Hair? Will they ask him to go away? Cessna pilot "JFK, This is November Three Zero Five Romeo. Is runway 22R or 22L available?" ATC "Is there an emergency?" Cessna pilot "No. We are traveling from Michigan to New York and we want to land at your airport. November Three Zero Five Romeo" What will happen next? Will they ask him to go away?
It's quite permissible to do so, however a general aviation pilot in a low performance plane should be ready for fast instructions and quite a bit of maneuvering to stay out of the way. The best time to do it would be at night. Here's a youtube video of one doing it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKvWn317tpU
