The Trust is a public trust that was created in 1956 by the City of Oklahoma City (“City”) to operate the City’s three airports. The City owns the Airport land and the Trust exclusively leases, operates and maintains the Airport and its buildings. The City is the sole beneficiary of the Trust, and the Trust exclusively operates and manages all three airports in the Trust’s system. The Trust is a separate entity from the City. The Airport is a Part 139 commercial passenger service airport serving the City and the nine surrounding counties.
B. Passenger and Visitor Traffic:
The Airport terminal building is open to the public 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
At present, high traffic hours for passengers and visitors generally occur between the hours of 4:00 a.m.–8:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m., 3:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m., and 11:00 p.m. – 1:00 a.m., although many flights are scheduled at non-peak times as well. Fall and Spring Breaks, summer travel during the months of June through August, Thanksgiving, and Christmas holidays are also high demand time periods.
C. Airline Arrivals and Departures:
The Airport currently handles approximately 4.6 million total passengers per year, serving more than 25 cities with non-stop service by the Airport’s seven (7) major carriers, which includes Alaska, Allegiant, American Airlines, Delta, Frontier, Southwest, and United.

Additional historical parking revenue and transaction information is included in Attachments E-1, E-2, and E-3.
F. Project Specific information:
The Airport’s parking operations utilize a variety of systems to manage parking availability and enhance the passenger experience. The Trust installed PARCS in 2018. In 2024, the Trust replaced its pay-on-foot machines with a mobile pay option. Additionally, the Airport plans to implement a reservation system in 2025.
Alongside the PARCS equipment, the Trust uses a space counting system in its garages.
This system provides real-time parking availability through entrance signage displaying the number of open parking spaces by floor. Within the garages, the space counting system includes parking guidance signage on each level, as well as lighted space indicators for individual parking spaces in the Blue Garage.
The Trust utilizes dynamic signage at each parking entrance to inform passengers of availability or closures. Dynamic signage is located approximately one quarter of a mile prior to the entrances and continues through to the entrance itself for Premium, Garage, and Long-Term Parking Areas to provide early notifications, allowing drivers to make informed decisions and choose alternative Parking Areas if needed.
There are two (2) level 1 Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (“EV”) in the Premium Parking Area that were installed and maintained by the current Operator. The successful Proposer will be required to provide and maintain an equivalent or improved level of EV, depending on available infrastructure by installing new EV. EV service must be provided at no cost to Airport customers.
