Salt Lake City is Delta's hub, but airline executives say their profitability here third-large- st is marginal. Price-cuttin- g competition with Southwest Airlines affects their bottom line in Utah. Delta's lease expires in 2003 and negotiations on a new lease will begin next year. Delta already is taking a tough stand at least publicly. "Yes, we favor the (2008 expansion) option (but only if) it does not impact the cost of our operation at the airport," said Delta spokesman Todd Clay. He said that means Delta will not agree to any increase in fees, and, if pressed, it is ready to go elsewhere. Such a position, he said, is not bluster. "It's a realistic view of the fact that Delta has to make a return on its invest ment. And anything that impacts our finances in a negative manner is something that has to be considered," he said. officials said Airport Wednesday that such hard talk has not characterized their private discussions with Delta, both in Salt Lake City and at the carrier's Atlanta headquarters. "We did not hear threats like that from (Delta boss) Leo McMullin," interim airport director Cheryl Cook told Airport Authority board members. City Council and Authority Keith member board Christensen said Delta can't close its operations in Salt Lake City without going somewhere else. And that could end up costing Delta more, since it's cheaper to operate out of Salt Lake City than most airports in the region. Much of the work would take place where Concourse E, serving Delta partner SkyWest Airlines, is located, and includes an apron and temporary facilities for the regional carrier. aircraft-parkin- Utah-base- d g - THE REDESIGNED their accounts Thursday.
