The airfield has two crossing runways of 600 meters length and 60 meters width, with grass surface. The directions are 16 and 34, and 04 and 22. There are no landing lights or navigational systems on the airfield. Therefore, the airfield is only certified for use in daylight. There are no regular flights to Kihnu since Air Livonia stopped operating. Small private planes use the airfield for general flights in the summer. Also LFH does charter flights to Kihnu.

Kihnu Airfield is owned by AS Pärnu Lennujaam (Pärnu Airport Ltd).

The leaders of the airfield warn that the airfield is not fenced in, so pilots who wish to land outside of the airfield's operational hours need to make sure that there are no people, animals or other obstacles on the runways before landing.
