Abstract
Using actual data gathered from field surveys and an extensive literature survey, this work examines and evaluates the economic and financial performance of the U.S. airports. A detailed analysis of the economics of airport ownership is also given. The impact of the airline deregulation act on airport capital financing and access to airport facilities is examined. In addition to a review of 16 airport-air carrier lease agreements, the financial and pricing policies adopted by the air carrier airports are also discussed.
