McNary Field has had scheduled airline flights, including service on Delta Air Lines that ended in October 2008. The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 categorized it as a "primary commercial service" facility based on enplanements in 2008 (more than 10,000 per year). Federal Aviation Administration records say the airport had 15,205 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008, an increase from 12,979 in 2007 . The Oregon Army National Guard - Army Aviation Support Facility (AASF) and charter flights also use the facilities. McNary Field is the home of the Oregon Department of Aviation. Airline service. United Airlines was the first airline at Salem, starting in 1941–42; their Boeing 737 SFO-MFR-SLE-PDX and back ended in 1980. Passenger airlines left McNary Field in 1993. The city campaigned to bring passenger airlines back, and on June 7, 2007 Delta Connection came to Salem with two CRJ-200 flights a day to Salt Lake City that ended on October 9, 2008. Earlier, Horizon Air turboprops flew Salem  to Portland and Seattle. In April 2011 SeaPort Airlines, an Oregon-based airline, began 11 weekly flights between Newport Municipal Airport (Oregon), Salem and Portland International Airport.
