Revenue model

1. Hangar and Land Leasing: The airport generates revenue through competitive lease options for airport land, hangars, and office spaces. Land lease rates are typically per-square-foot based on fair market value, with terms established on a case-by-case basis. Demand has increased due to taxiway and runway repaving, resulting in a waiting list for hangar and commercial-use space.
2. Commercial Aviation Services: Revenue from commercial airline operations including landing fees, terminal fees, and gate access charges for American Eagle flights serving the Dallas/Fort Worth hub. Also includes rental car counter concession fees from AVIS and Budget located inside the terminal.
3. FBO and Aviation Services: Revenue from fueling services (Jet A and 100LL), hangar rental, ramp and tie-down fees, and ground handling services provided through the on-site FBO (KRS Jet Center) and other aviation service tenants.
4. Foreign Trade Zone Operations: Revenue and economic benefits from the 300-acre Foreign Trade Zone No. 234, supporting storage, manufacturing, assembly, and distribution operations. While FTZ benefits (duty deferral, tax exemptions) are passed to tenants, the zone attracts industrial and logistics businesses that contribute to airport revenue.
