PORT OF SEATTLE MEMORANDUM COMMISSION AGENDA STAFF BRIEFING Item No. 7b Date of Meeting September 12, 2011 DATE: September 2, 2011 TO: Tay Yoshitani, Chief Executive Officer FROM: Michael Ehl, Director Airport Operations SUBJECT: Briefing on the Airline Realignment Program at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Airport) SYNOPSIS: Airline consolidation within the broader airline industry has caused an unbalance of activity in gate areas and in the terminal building. It is necessary to relocate both merged airlines and others to meet the airline needs and to have an efficient facility that meets both the Airport needs and airline needs. The realignment program aims to meet those various needs and will cost approximately $125 million. This realignment program consists of three types of projects as shown in the attached PowerPoint. First, capital realignment projects, which provide operational facilities to move airlines from one set of gates and ticketing areas to another. There are approximately seven different projects necessary in the capital realignment category. An example is the Common Use Gate Facilities on Concourse D. Second, linked or related projects, may not be necessary for a single particular move, but are necessary to meet broader needs. There are approximately five different projects necessary in the linked realignment category. An example is the north satellite seismic improvements. Third, tenant improvement projects are those that serve airline specific needs, and without which the airline could not operate efficiently. Nine airlines are affected by the realignment and will have associated tenant improvements such as airline ticket and ramp offices. With on-going airline consolidation interests and a goal to balance and maximize utilization of our existing facilities, the Airport issued intent on December 9, 2010, to exercise the One-Time Reallocation provision in the current Signatory Lease & Operating Agreement (SLOA). The reallocation will require a number of modifications associated with relocating airline gate and ticket counter operations. It is the intent that a relocated airline will be functionally equal in its new location, as compared to its existing operation.
