Preferential Use means a right or use having priority, but not exclusivity, over a use by other Passenger Air Transportation Companies.

Preferential Use means the scheduling preference given to Airline over similar operations by other airlines for the use of a Preferential Use Gate or Preferential Common Use Ticket Counter during applicable Periods of Use for its Scheduled Operations. An Airline assigned a Preferential Use Gate shall have the right to use the Joint Use Premises and Common Use Premises in the Terminal where the assigned Gate is located. Preferential Use Gates, together with the adjacent Joint Use Premises and Common Use Premises, shall be used only for the purpose of the Airline’s Air Transportation Business. On the Effective Date of this Agreement, Airline is entitled to one (1) Preferential Use Gate for the first 625 Scheduled Departing Seats Per Day and one additional Preferential Use Gate for every additional 750 Scheduled Departing Seats Per Day, subject to the condition that no more than six (6) Preferential Use Gates shall be assigned to any one Airline at one time. The Authority may annually or more frequently if necessary, reset the minimum number(s) of Scheduled Departing Seats Per Day used in the Daily Average Utilization formula to ensure the allocation of Gates to Airlines is fair and that the Authority retains a sufficient number of Authority-Controlled Facilities. In calculating the Scheduled Departing Seats Per Day, Authority may refer to various months of an Airline’s Scheduled Operations to ensure the calculation is equitably set and applied. Article 5 shall govern the interpretation of this definition.
