The 3rd and 5th squadrons of Bordfliegergruppe 196 (Embarked Air Group 196) as well as the group's staff unit, used Aalborg as a base for maritime reconnaissance flights and detachments serving aboard German Navy surface combatants . [15]
The present terminal building is from 2001. The airport was enlarged during 2007 and 2013, increasing the terminal size and number of gates.
