History
The idea for an airport on an artificial island for the two Black Sea provinces was first conceived in 1992. The construction work was started in 1994. However, due to high costs, the project came to a halt shortly afterward. The government took a second airport project into consideration, and plans were worked out between 2008 and 2010. The project started on 13 July 2011. The opening of the airport for traffic took place on 22 May 2015. The airport is on reclaimed land from the sea in Gülyalı. About 30 million tons of rocks were used for the artificial island. It has a 3000 x runway, a 240 x airport apron, a 250 x taxiway, a 20000 m2 terminal building as well as 16500 m2 technical service and air traffic control building.

The airport's construction cost TRY 290 million (US$128.5 million). It is expected to serve about 2 million passengers annually for the two provinces Ordu and Giresun, which have a total population of 1.2 million.
