Per person on the plane. Okay. And then the companion resolution 611 is a marketing agreement. And that is also a standard action that the airport takes for any airline to conduct, say, service to a new market. And that is a straight reimbursement over their promotional materials. Yes. Okay. And the only thing the only other question I had, Mr. President, is they're conducting this service with the Boeing. 787, the Dreamliner. Race. Great. And okay. Because the $4 million seemed a little high based on the capacity for two flights a week over two years. But it works out to about 320 passengers per flight. Right. Okay. And that's 787. Does that? Yes. Great. All right. Thank you, Mr. Brett. That's the only questions I had. All right. Thank you. And thank you, Angela. Looks like this concludes. Unless you want to say yes, to say, okay, this concludes all of our. I have a summons up and I'm up. Oh, and you missed me, too. Did we miss you? Disappeared. Okay, Angela will do. Dr. Sussman, go ahead. Thank you, Mr. President. I also thank you for bringing this up. Councilman Flynn, I also wanted to clarify, because I received an email about this of a concern of spending taxpayer dollars on these kind of incentives. But I want to make it very clear that these are not taxpayer funds paying into the incentive fund or the reimbursement for marketing, which I could be correct. Yes. These are Denver airport funds that are not tax supported. Thank you. All right, Councilman Cashman. Yeah, Angela, I was just wondering, is this with every new nonstop or some or how is this applying? The these are for new airlines, new international service and new domestic service. Okay. Do you know the last time we used this, by any chance? We have used this for the Lufthansa to Munich. We've also used it for Air Canada to Montreal. We have some new ones coming online. We have Edelweiss to Zurich. And so this is. A common. Practice, not only with Denver International Airport, with most. Airports. Thank you very much. Thanks, Mr.. Prime. Councilman Andre, I missed you earlier because you plugged in. Do you want to go in? It's on a different bill, so I can wait. Oh, okay. Councilman Espinosa? Yeah. I just would like to request, if possible, that the airport provide sort of offline, sort of accounting for the last five years for this type of incentive. Because to to my colleague's point, this is airport money. But there are other things, other issues that are labor related and stuff like that, where we're also talking about simply airport money and yet we don't have money for those things, but we do have money for incentives like this. So I'd like to really understand the sort of magnitude of what we've been giving to the airlines. I mean, I just want to make note that this is this particular flight is something that we've been working on for the last decade. And these are really. Economic. Generators for not only for our city, but for Paris. And so they generate hundreds of millions of dollars of tourist income and that sort of thing. So it's we definitely get a return on investment on these. Yeah. And so when we have, if we ever have that important that, that, that, that employment argument, I would fully expect the, the airport to be to be able to articulate why it's more important to have airlines than than than than, you know, increased compensation for people that work for those airlines. Okay. Thanks. All right. I think we're done here. Councilwoman Ortega, did you have another? But I just wanted to make a comment on Council Bill 587 on page eight.
