42 Building and Maintaining Air Service Through Incentive Programs Airport Fee Waiver: An incentive in which an airport waives specific fees charged to airlines (landing fees, terminal rents, ground handling, or any other fee that the airport would normally charge an airline for use of an airport and its facilities). Marketing Support: Financial support provided by an airport or community for the marketing of a new airline service. Within limits, airports can provide marketing support incentives, and communities can do so in a wider variety of ways. Airline Revenue or Minimum Revenue Guarantee: A guarantee (which cannot be funded by air- ports using aeronautical revenue sources) to an airline that a new service will generate a specified amount of revenue from ticket sales, with the incentive guarantee making up the difference. Travel Bank: A fund created by local businesses for use to purchase tickets on a target airline.
