There aren’t as many gates as a bigger airport and the gates are leased to individual airlines. Those airlines work the times for the gates so theoretically the gate is open when the next plane for that gate lands. They also run slots into the busy airports with ATC to not overwhelm the system.

Thanks.

San Diego airport has 15 more gates than New Orleans (MSY) and handles about 3,000,000 more passengers a year.

MSY has 2 runways.
