MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager
FROM: Derek Ables, Airport Manager
DATE: March 10, 2025
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2025-19 - Authorizing the City Manager to Enter Into an
Airline Operating Agreement and Terminal Area Lease with Aleutian
Airways
Aleutian Airways is requesting to start scheduled operations out of the Kenai Municipal Airport
Terminal Building June, 2025. They would begin leasing terminal space beginning May 2025 in
order to move in, hire, and set up. The current Airline operating agreement expires June 30th
2025 at which time all airlines will need to sign any amendments to the Agreement.
They intend to provide two roundtrip flights between Kenai and Anchorage seven days a week.
The additional flight options will benefit the Airport and City of Kenai residents. The additional
flights give more choices to passengers, especially those that travel to Anchorage for medical
treatments. The Airport Commission has reviewed, and recommended the City of Kenai enter into
an agreement with Aleutian Airways.
Additionally, the Airport is required to comply with several grant assurances as a condition of
receiving Airport Improvement Funding and to continue to receive that funding:
Economic Nondiscrimination - It will make the airport available as an airport for public use
on reasonable terms and without unjust discrimination to all types, kinds and classes of
aeronautical activities, including commercial aeronautical activities offering services to the
public at the airport. Each air carrier using such airport (whether as a tenant, non -tenant,
or subtenant of another air carrier tenant) shall be subject to such nondiscriminatory and
substantially comparable rules, regulations, conditions, rates, fees, rentals, and other
charges with respect to facilities directly and substantially related to providing air
transportation as are applicable to all such air carriers which make similar use of such
airport and utilize similar facilities, subject to reasonable classifications such as tenants or
non -tenants and signatory carriers and non -signatory carriers. Classification or status as
tenant or signatory shall not be unreasonably withheld by any airport provided an air carrier
assumes obligations substantially similar to those already imposed on air carriers in such
classification or status.
Exclusive Rights -It will permit no exclusive right for the use of the airport by any person
providing, or intending to provide, aeronautical services to the public.
Fee and Rental Structure. It will maintain a fee and rental structure for the facilities and
services at the airport which will make the airport as self-sustaining as possible under
the circumstances existing at the particular airport, taking into account such factors as
the volume of traffic and economy of collection.
Council's support of this resolution is respectfully requested.

provided in Exhibit C, then the Airline's allocated joint rental amount may be adjusted, at the
City's option, for the remainder of the current Fiscal Year to reflect the Airline's percent of total
enplanements which results from the City's revised enplanement projection. However, if only
one commercial passenger airline provides service to the Airport for the remainder of the Fiscal
Year, such adjusted percentage shall not exceed 50% of total projected enplanements for the
current calendar year.

Airline of the billing therefor.

premises, facilities, rights, licenses, services or privileges as herein provided falls on any day
other than the first day of a calendar month, the applicable rentals, fees and charges for that

5.9.1 In the event Airline fails to submit the reports required by Sections 5.2.2 and 5.3.2 for
the then current month by the fifteenth (15th) day of the succeeding month, City shall
base its current rentals, fees and charges upon the most recent data transmitted by
Airline to City, with such charges to be adjusted as necessary on the next succeeding

unavailable in the next succeeding month, City shall develop estimates as to Airline's
monthly activity for use in the determination of Airline's rentals, fees and charges.

the accuracy of Airline's reports on which Airline's rentals, fees and charges are
