The move will put the regional carrier -- which operates regional jets for Delta Air Lines Inc.'s "Connection" service-- into the 203,000-square-foot North Hangar, with 17 acres of adjacent land and 1,400 parking spaces for its staff.
The hangar will also give the carrier room to grow its employee base and maintenance operations, as needed.
At least 100 administrative workers will be relocated from Macon to the new facility, said Lisa Walker, ASA's vice president of customer service and head of the airline's real estate.
She said the 25-year lease with the airport "shows our commitment to Atlanta."
ASA has been based in Atlanta for 26 years, said Walker.
The airline is owned by St. George, Utah-based SkyWest Inc. (Nasdaq: SKYW) and has a fleet of 159 mostly Bombardier regional jets that fly from 50 to 70 passengers.
One hundred percent of its operations support Delta's (NYSE: DAL) regional routes, said Walker.
ASA routes connect Atlanta to Guadalajara, Mexico, and Montreal, plus all points between, from the Eastern seaboard to the Midwest.
All told, the airline has about 800 flights a day out of Hartsfield and more than 4,000 employees, most in Atlanta. Four hundred employees will move into the new headquarters.
