Sandefjord was built after World War II using NATO funds as a military airport. After a while the airport also started having civilian airlines, among others Norsk Air who operated regional flights to Bergen, Stavanger and Trondheim using a fleet of Embraer aircraft.

In 2006 Torp had 1,300,762 passengers, about two thirds travelling internationally.

It serves both as regional airport and as a low-cost airport for Eastern Norway. Widerøe and Coast Air offer domestic flights to Bergen, Haugesund, Stavanger and Trondheim while a number of other airlines offer international flights serving the Vestfold/Telemark area. The low-cost airlines Ryanair and Wizzair fly to the airport as Oslo-Torp, although the airport is twice the distance from Oslo as Gardermoen and lacks high-speed rail transport to the city. The airport is located between the city of Sandefjord and Stokke.
