The airport was initially planned to be opened in 2016, as one of the gifts to Omsk's jubilee of 300 years.

The airport was initially decided to be built outside the boundaries of Omsk in 1979.

Years later it was planned to be commissioned for the 300th anniversary of Omsk, which was celebrated in 2016, but in 2012 it was announced that the work was being stopped.

The airport is proposed to be built on a new site, rather than continue working on the previous long-lasting construction, which in recent years has become a venue for street racing auto-matches[2] Currently, only plans, there were no official documents signed,[3] but Novaport promises to finish the airport construction for three years.
