In recent years, the airport has struggled due to competition with the much larger Manchester-Boston Regional Airport, 65 miles (87 kilometers) away. Colgan Air formerly offered non-stop flights from Lebanon to New York-La Guardia Airport operating as US Airways Express. The airline first operated the flights with the Beechcraft 1900, and later with the Saab 340 before service ended in November 2008.
On November 2, 2008, Cape Air began offering service to Boston. Airline service is subsidized by the Essential Air Service program utilizing the smaller Cessna 402 aircraft. The terminal building has typical facilities such as baggage claim, a check-in desk, rental car services, and airport security.
As per Federal Aviation Administration records, the airport had 8,294 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008, 6,089 enplanements in 2009, and 7,832 in 2010. It is included in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2017–2021, in which it is categorized as a non-hub primary commercial service facility.
