The passenger terminal is one of three terminals in South Dakota that boasts a moving jet bridge, the other two being Sioux Falls Regional Airport and Rapid City Regional Airport. The loading bridge allows passengers to board the aircraft from directly inside the terminal and right onto the aircraft, without having to walk outside, which is a key deciding factor for travelers who choose to fly out of the airport. As of March 2015, Delta Connection is the only commercial airline currently operating out of Aberdeen Regional Airport, providing jet only service on daily flights to Minneapolis/St. Paul on their Canadair Regional Jet 200.

History

In 1923, Aberdeen hosted the first fly-in event in South Dakota. During World War II, the airfield was used by the United States Army Air Forces as a contract glider training airfield owned by Anderson & Brennan Flying Service, beginning on 25 May 1942. The mission of the school was to train glider pilot students in proficiency in operation of gliders in various types of towed and soaring flight, both day and night, and in servicing of gliders in the field. They primarily used C-47 Skytrains and Waco CG-4 unpowered Gliders.

Originally named Aberdeen Municipal Airport, the name was changed to Saunders Field in 1946.
