Leading
RECOVERY
Navigating the impact of a global pandemic was a challenge for airports of all sizes, across the entire nation. Yet during 2021, we still found ways to make progress. While the pandemic continued, John Wayne Airport took active steps to lead by example, respond with agility and protect what matters.
COVID-19 RESPONSES FOR TENANT RELIEF
We continued our COVID-19 response initiatives with dozens of amendments for tenant relief measures issued throughout the year.
HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELLNESS—OUR TOP PRIORITIES
We partnered with Hoag Health Services to open two Fly Well Clinics, serving travelers both pre- and post-security, providing COVID-19 Rapid Testing and on-site health care services by licensed professionals. This healthcare team was available to treat minor illnesses and injuries, schedule telehealth consultations, provide vital screenings and prescriptions, and address cold/flu and travel sickness. We also collaborated with the O.C. Health Care Agency to promote COVID-19 testing through a test kit giveaway at multiple pre-security locations in the Terminal.
ENCOURAGING HEALTHY BEHAVIORS WHILE TRAVELING
We continued the long-term implementation of our Healthy Travels campaign to promote healthy behaviors while traveling during COVID-19 pandemic.
ADDING AIRLINES AND DESTINATIONS
SMART MOVES TO EXPAND OUR OFFERINGS
We provided on-boarding support and operational readiness for three new airlines: Allegiant Airlines, Sun Country, and Air Canada.
“WE TOOK ACTIVE STEPS TO lead
BY EXAMPLE, respond WITH AGILITY
AND protect WHAT MATTERS.”
PROGRESS WITH OUR GENERAL AVIATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (GAIP)
As part of our multi-year GAIP, we successfully transitioned and on-boarded three new Fixed Base Operators effective January 1, 2021, for leases ranging from 30 to 35 years.

GREENER OPERATIONS, MORE SUSTAINABILITY
We received three electric shuttle buses, procured with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Zero Emission Vehicle Grant Funds. These buses replace compressed natural gas (CNG) powered vehicles, and will be put into service in 2022 to reduce global warming emissions.
WE’LL PAVE THE WAY FOR EMPLOYMENT
In 2022, we plan to use tenant marketing funds for an Airport-wide job fair, open to all JWA tenants and stakeholders that operate from the Terminals.
