The flights mark the beginning of regular air service to Mammoth throughout the snow season.
“We have been eagerly anticipating the expanded number of Horizon Air flights to our area” Travelers can enjoy two daily nonstop flights from Los Angeles as well as daily nonstop service from San Jose and Reno and direct (same-plane, one-stop) service from Seattle and Portland. Flights will continue through April 11, 2010.
“We have been eagerly anticipating the expanded number of Horizon Air flights to our area,” said Rusty Gregory, CEO of Mammoth Mountain. “With El Niño expected to provide one of the best snow seasons ever, the timing couldn’t be better.”
Mammoth Mountain is just 15 minutes from the Mammoth Lakes Yosemite airport. During last year’s inaugural season of service, thousands of Southern Californians took advantage of Horizon's 70-minute flight from Los Angeles instead of enduring five hours or more of driving.
Horizon is offering special low fares for flights on select days between Mammoth and each city. Fares start at $49 each way from Reno, $69 from San Jose or Los Angeles, $144 from Portland, and $149 from Seattle.
The Mammoth winter season flight schedule shown below will run from Dec. 17, 2009, through April 11, 2010, and is available for sale now at www.horizonair.com or by calling 800-547-9308 (TTY at 800-682-2221).
