The airport has no airline flights. Flights to Portland International Airport were most recently provided by SeaPort Airlines from March 2008[2] until Spring of 2010.[3] Until 1974-75 Astoria had flights on West Coast Airlines and its successors.

Federal Aviation Administration records say the airport had 1,851 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008,[4] 1,531 in 2009 and 3,482 in 2010.[5] The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 categorized it as a general aviation facility based on enplanements in 2008 (the commercial service category requires 2,500 per year)[6] but it would be categorized as commercial service - non-primary based in enplanements in 2010.
