History
In February 2017, the airport decided to cancel all subsidies towards low cost carriers serving the airport which led to Ryanair and Pegasus Airlines cancelling all services to Saint-Étienne by 2018. As of April 2018, the airport website mentions no scheduled services, but there are holiday charters, mainly to Mediterranean destinations.

Despite all the questions asked recently about the airport and it's future, several actions were made to maintain the activity of the place, like the return of charter flights current 2023. Currently the place knows a lot of touristic activities, with a plan to restore some charter flights abroad.
