A population of over two million people is protected by the health and safety emergency flight services that use this airport as their hub.

Also, the airport operates a number of heliports and charter spaces for air services to the North Sea. Many oil rig crews fly in and out of Norwich International Airport on their way to contract work.

The relationship that the airport enjoys with KLM Airlines means that the airport is one of the UK's main hubs of indirect travel to the world, with via-Amsterdam flights accounting for a large percentage of total traffic.
