The airport is arranged around Domestic Terminal A and Terminal B, which has been used for domestic and international services. Its practical passenger capacity is around 1.2-1.8 million passengers per year, supported by a 2,200-meter runway, apron space, baggage services, lounges, food and beverage outlets, retail areas, prayer rooms, taxis and passenger information facilities. Traffic is generally steadier outside peak periods, with stronger demand during school holidays, Eid, year-end travel and major cultural or academic events in Yogyakarta.

Airlines operating from Adisutjipto have included domestic carriers and regional operators serving routes such as Jakarta-Halim and selected Indonesian cities, while many larger domestic flights and regular international flights now use Yogyakarta International Airport. Historically, demand for flight tickets from the airport has been driven by business, student, family and leisure travel, with international demand mainly linked to nearby Southeast Asian markets and onward connections through larger hubs.
