She may use any POE, even Guam if she wants to.  It doesn’t matter what the final destination is.  People often connect to another flight after an international flight to get home, and any airport receiving international flights can handle the K1 visa.  You’re not restricted in any way.

@Bhabiedoo, I would also suggest that you leave a sufficient amount of layover time so that the visa can be processed and your fiancee not miss her connecting flight. I would think that a 3-4 hours layover would be sufficient just in case.

No, she can come in anywhere the international flight will land, make sure you leave her 3-4 hours for immigration. 

 

My Fiance went through LAX, we left her 2.5 hours, she missed her connection. Her first day in the USA was at the Hilton LAX, without me.

LAX is pretty terrible in general and the lines are gigantic.
