OPINION

BOYCE F. MARTIN, JR., Circuit Judge.

Wilson Air Center, LLC appeals from the final decision of the Federal Aviation Administration. Wilson filed a complaint with the Administration alleging that the Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority’s differing treatment of Wilson and Wilson’s competitor, AMR Combs, Incorporated, 1 violated its obligations under federal law prohibiting unjust economic discrimination, 49 U.S.C. § 47107(a)(1), (5), as well as prohibiting the creation of “exclusive rights,” 49 U.S.C. § 40103(e). The Administration rejected Wilson’s claims; we AFFIRM.
