History
The airport was built in 1958 by the Public Works Department. However, it remained underdeveloped for many years, being served only for a short while by regional carrier Vayudoot in the early 1990s. In April 2000, the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) took over the development and maintenance of the airport.
To push development and trade in the Marathwada region, the Maharashtra State Industries Ministry initiated the process of modernisation of airports operated by MIDC in 2006. Tenders were floated to invite private parties to draw out a plan for flight operations, as a result of which, the airport was leased to Reliance Airport Developers, a subsidiary of Reliance Infra that undertakes project management, implementation, and operation of airports, who currently operates the airport.
Air India and TruJet were the only two airlines that operated from the airport to four destinations–Amritsar, Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad in 2018, before both of them shutting down operations indefinitely in February 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and TruJet's bankruptcy in February 2022. Since then, the airport remained inoperative for three years, when in July 2023, three airlines, Star Air, Fly91 and TruJet announced plans to connect the airport with new destinations, such as Jalandhar, Bangalore, Jalgaon, Sindhudurg, Pune, Goa and Hyderabad under the UDAN Scheme, by the end of 2023 and the flighs are resumed now .
