I don't see many other civil movements.
There are actually quite a few. Kamair fly in there a few times a day, as do Ariana. Iran Aseman also come in there a few times a week in their 727. That's the scheduled civvy side of things.

The biggest issue is actually going to be finding sufficient space on Juliet Ramp, which is adjacent to the terminal building, and the only civilian apron. It's congested enough as it is, and often the larger jets are left waiting on a taxi way, while the preceding aircraft is waiting for start.

Enjoy the incessant jamming , sometimes enough to stop all movements for over an hour. Luckily the yank ATC's are pretty jacked when it comes to slotting in traffic and keeping the flow of traffic moving. You may want to keep your TCAS set to it's lowest range when going in there though...
