Debt and Other Obligations Debt and Other Obligations

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had outstanding non-public and public debt instruments. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company incurred debt through fixed-rate term loans and a previously existing revolving credit facility described below.

Fixed-rate term loans

During 2018, the Company entered into a facility agreement, which as of June 30, 2019, provided $70.0 million for two Airbus A320 aircraft delivered in 2019. The loans extended under the facility agreement are secured by a first-priority security interest on the individual aircraft. These loans have a term life of 12 years and amortize on a mortgage-style basis, which requires quarterly principal and interest payments.

Revolving credit facility

During 2018, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility for up to $160 million secured by the collateral assignment of certain of the Company's rights under the purchase agreement with Airbus, related to 43 Airbus A320neo aircraft scheduled to be delivered between August 2019 and December 2021. The final maturity of the facility is December 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had drawn $160.0 million on the facility which is included in long-term debt and finance leases, less current maturities on the Company's condensed balance sheets. The revolving credit facility bears variable interest based on LIBOR.

Long-term debt is comprised of the following:
