DELTA AIR LINES AGREEMENT
Department:Augusta Regional Airport
Presenter:Herbert Judon
Caption:Request the Augusta Commission approve the contract between
Augusta Regional Airport and Delta Airlines as approved by the
Augusta Aviation Commission at their November 30, 2017
Meeting.
Background:The two incumbent airlines at AGS have been operating under an
agreement since 2013. The term of the agreement was for three (3)
years with two (2) one-year options for renewal. Both airlines
were operating under the same agreement and for the same terms.
Delta Air Lines exercised their first option for renewal. American
Airlines did not exercise their first option for renewal due to the
merger between American and US Airways. Since they did not
exercise their option, they have been operating under the rates and
charges ordinance for the past year. The preference is to have both
airlines on the same leasing schedule. Both airlines have agreed to
a new agreement with a five (5) year term. Airport and airline
staff have developed a mutually agreeable contract.
Analysis:The preference is to have both airlines on the same leasing
schedule. Both airlines have agreed to a new agreement with a
five (5) year term. Airport and airline staff have developed a
mutually agreeable contract. The agreement will protect the
interests of the Airport and is mutually agreeable to both parties.

PASSENGER BOARDING BRIDGE PURCHASE
Department:Augusta Regional Airport
Presenter:Herbert Judon
Caption:Request the Augusta Commission approve the purchase and
acquisition of two (2) passenger boarding bridges from JBT Aero
Tech Corporation (JBT) at a cost not to exceed $2,000,000 as
approved by the Augusta Aviation Commission at their November
30, 2017 Meeting.
Background: The passenger boarding bridges are the tunnel-type devices that
facilitate the transition of aircraft passengers from the plane to the
terminal boarding area and vice versa. AGS currently has one
passenger boarding bridge that exclusively services one of our two
commercial airline carriers. Upon approval of this request, AGS
will initiate the purchase of two additional passenger boarding
bridges (PBBs).
The Airport is requesting the use of a sole source procurement
process for standardization. The purchase will be made using
Passenger Facility Charge (PFC's)
Analysis:The following are some of the benefits AGS will derive from the
new PBBs: 1) Safer and more efficient transition of passengers 2)
Protection (passengers & employees) from the elements 3) ADA-
related accommodations (e.g., wheelchairs, limited mobility,
disabled, etc.) 4) Service and perception upgrades (e.g., first class,
elimination of ground boarding, etc.) 5) Improved ability to
accommodate new entrant airline service, charters, and special
events(e.g., The Masters Operation)
Financial Impact:The cost for the equipment and all associated support, design, and
installation is approximately $2,000,000.
Alternatives:Deny request.
Recommendation:Approve request.
