Ground Facilities
We lease most of the land and buildings that we occupy. Delta's largest aircraft maintenance base, various computer, cargo, flight kitchen and training
facilities and most of its principal offices are located at or near the Atlanta Airport, on land leased from the City of Atlanta generally under long-term leases.
Delta owns a portion of its principal offices, its Atlanta reservations center and other real property in Atlanta. NWA owns its primary offices, which are
located near the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport, including its corporate offices located on a 160-acre site east of the airport. Other NWA owned
facilities include reservations centers in Baltimore, Maryland, Tampa, Florida, Minot, North Dakota and Chisholm, Minnesota, and a data processing center in
Eagan, Minnesota. NWA also owns property in Tokyo, including a 1.3-acre site in downtown Tokyo and a 33-acre land parcel, 512-room hotel and flight
kitchen located near Tokyo's Narita International Airport.
We lease ticket counter and other terminal space, operating areas and air cargo facilities in most of the airports that we serve. At most airports, we have
entered into use agreements which provide for the non-exclusive use of runways, taxiways, and other improvements and facilities; landing fees under these
agreements normally are based on the number of landings and weight of aircraft. These leases and use agreements generally run for
