Long Beach Airport is one of the five major airports serving the Los Angeles area. While a noise ordinance limits the number of commercial airline flights, the airport remains busy with a large amount of general aviation traffic. Test and delivery flights of Boeing C-17 aircraft occur at the airport.  Gulfstream's west coast completion and service center is also located at the airport, providing a variety of business jet traffic. The airport also serves as the west coast hub for JetBlue Airways.

Runway 12/30 is the primary arrival and departure runway for most aircraft, including airline and Boeing flights. The other runways mainly handle general aviation flights, though may be used by larger aircraft when 12/30 is unavailable.
