First United Flight Landed in Bishop Dec 19th. Here’s How you can fly out!
On December 19, 2021 our region celebrated the first commercial flights into the Eastern Sierra Regional Airport in Bishop (BIH) with a champagne toast. These flights are the culmination of years of dedication from our partners to bring more consistent and reliable air service to the Eastern Sierra and move us toward the goal of expanding flight offerings to benefit business owners, guests and locals. The event included partners from the FAA, Mammoth Mountain, Inyo County, the City of Bishop and the Town of Mammoth Lakes. Daily seasonal service into Bishop via United is available from Denver, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Shuttle and rental car services from Bishop to Mammoth Lakes will be available to visitors on each flight (including those that are delayed). Advanced Air is offering regional service to and from Burbank (BUR), Hawthorne (HHR) and Carlsbad (CLD) airports. Advanced Air flights also have the advantage of being able to land in Bishop, Calif. (35 miles away) in the event of inclement weather in Mammoth Lakes.
