Is United paying a fee to the stadium for this arrangement, or do they just get all that space for free?

The Niners will now fly their opponents in exclusively on UA, to make them as tired as possible due to "issues" during the journey

Looks like the Niners and Stadium, like everyone else based in SFO, had no realistic alternative other than UA.
(yes, I know, the stadium is much closer to SJC, etc).
