We have the option to renew the B717 leases for additional periods ranging from one to four years. The B717 leases have purchase options at or near the end of the lease term at fair market value, and two have purchase options based on a stated percentage of the lessor’s defined cost of the aircraft at the end of the thirteenth year of the lease term. Each of the leases contains return conditions that must be met prior to the termination of the leases. Forty-one of the B717 leases are the result of sale/leaseback transactions. Deferred gains from these transactions are included in other liabilities and are being amortized over the terms of the leases. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, unamortized deferred gains, including gains on engine sale/leasebacks, were $50.8 million and $54.6 million, respectively.</font></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 11pt"></font> </div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">We lease 22 B737 aircraft through a single lessor under leases with terms that expire through 2021.

The balance of such payments, which is capped at any point in time at $2.25 million for each aircraft, is available to reimburse us for the cost of airframe, engine, and certain other component-part maintenance. There will be an accounting at the end of each aircraft lease to ascertain if there is any excess balance of the deposit payments; if so, such excess will be returned to us. These payments are accounted for as deposits and the aggregate amount of such deposits is included in other assets. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the balance of all maintenance deposits for all the B737 leased aircraft and related leased engines aggregated $58.2 million and $55.8 million, respectively.</font></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"><br /></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">We also lease a variety of facilities including ticket counters, gates, hangers, offices, and reservations and training facilities from local airport authorities, other carriers, and other parties under operating leases for terms ranging up to 2035.

The trusts are considered variable interest entities (VIEs) and in accordance with the guidance provided under FASB ASC 810 “Consolidation” (Consolidation Topic), we are required to assess if we are the primary beneficiary of these VIE’s. The assessment considers both quantitative and qualitative factors, including whether we have the power to direct the activities of the VIE, including but not limited to, determine or limiting the scope or purpose of the VIE, selling or transferring property owned or controlled by the VIE or arranging financing for the VIE.

However, we have two aircraft leases that contain fixed-price purchase options that allow us to purchase the aircraft at predetermined prices on specified dates during the lease term. Even taking into consideration these purchase options, we are not the primary beneficiary based on our cash flow analysis, and we do not have the risk of gain or loss or the power to direct the activities of the trust. Our maximum exposure under the two leases is limited to the remaining lease payments, which are reflected in the future minimum lease payments in the table above.</font></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"> </div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">We have concluded that we are not the primary beneficiary of any of the trusts and, therefore, we have not consolidated any of the trusts.</font><br /></div>Note 5 – Leases Total rental expense charged to operations for aircraft, facilities, and office space for the years ended December 31, 2010,falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringGeneral description of lessee's leasing arrangements including: (1) The basis on which contingent rental payments are determined, (2) The existence and terms of renewal or purchase options and escalation clauses, (3) Restrictions imposed by lease arrangements, such as those concerning dividends, additional debt, and further leasing, (4) Rent holidays, rent concessions, or leasehold improvement incentives and unusual provisions or conditions.
