The airport primarily serves general aviation and occasional charter or regional flights, reflecting the modest size and industrial character of the city it serves. Stepnogorsk itself was a closed Soviet-era city associated with uranium processing and the defense industry, and the airport's infrastructure reflects its origins in the Soviet period.
