class="postContent"><p><strong>Non-Stop Flights to Mammoth from San Diego… Finally a Reality!!</strong></p> <p>Grab your <strong><a href="../../snow-gearf528.html?cat=47">boards and skis</a></strong> and head to <strong><a href="http://www.san.org/">Lindbergh Field</a></strong> because it’s official: non-stop daily flights are finally taking off to Mammoth!</p> <p>That’s right!</p> <p>Now you can forget about long, boring road trips for epic snow.  Flights to Mammoth leave at 7:40 a.m. daily by <strong><a href="http://www.united.com/">United Express</a> </strong>(operated by SkyWest Airlines) and arrive at Mammoth at 9 a.m.</p> <p>For those not familiar with <strong><a href="http://www.mammothmountain.com/?wm_crID=9353440&wm_lpID=44130718&wm_ctID=378&wm_kwID=26756675&wm_mtID=3&wm_content=0&wm_g_crID=9662010542&wm_g_kw=mammoth+mountain&wm_g_pcmt=&wm_g_cnt=0&gclid=CN60rp6qja0CFQkaQgodsVuZlA&wm_kw=mammoth+mountain&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=mammoth+mountain&utm_campaign=sd+%2D+general+brand&wm_sd=1">Mammoth Mountain ski resort,</a></strong> it’s a quick, 15-minute drive from the <strong><a

Lakes-Yosemite airport.</a> </strong> The return flight leaves Mammoth at 3:41 p.m. and arrives at Lindbergh shortly after 5 p.m.</p> <p>That means you’re getting an almost a full day on the slopes each day you’re coming and going to Mammoth. SWEEEET!</p> <p>This is huge news for those of us who have braved many long, boring six- to eight-hour junk food and caffeine fueled drives to Mammoth. I have to say six- to eight-hours for PC reasons: because it all depends on your driving habits. I’ve made it in record time and met a lot of California Highway Patrol officers who thought my Texas accent and reasons for speeding were “interesting” enough to get me out of plenty of citations.</p> <p>In my defense though, eight hours of driving to Mammoth just doesn’t cut it. I’ve always found it so frustrating that such a fantastic ski resort as Mammoth is so close, yet so far way.</p> <p><strong><a href="http://www.ci.mammoth-lakes.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=82">The Mammoth Lakes Town Council</a></strong> talked about this for years, well before the real estate boom that led to the development of <a href="http://www.villageatmammoth.com/"><strong>The Village at Mammoth</strong>,</a> and all the mountain improvements. The timeline for direct flights kept moving until everyone stopped believing it would ever happen.</p> <p>Not anymore. It’s finally a reality, and I’m going online and booking a flight!</p></div> <div class="tags"><h4>Tags:</h4> <ul class="tags"> <li><a href="../tag/mammoth/index.html">mammoth</a></li> <li><a href="../tag/mountain/index.html">mountain</a></li> <li><a href="../tag/skiing/index.html">skiing</a></li> <li><a href="../tag/snowboard/index.html">snowboard</a></li> <li><a href="../tag/ski/index.html">ski</a></li> <li><a href="../tag/shop/index.html">shop</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="postDetails"> Posted in <a href="../cat/snowboard-ski-information.html">Snowboard & Ski Information</a> By <h4 class="poster">Josh Hansen</h4> </div> </div>  <div class="postTitle"><a name="commentBox" ></a> <h2>0 Comments</h2> </div> <form action="#" id="postComment" method="post" class="aw-post-comment"> <fieldset class="group-select"> <h4 class="legend">Submit Comment</h4> <ul class="form-list"> <li> <div class="input-box"> <label class="required" for="name">Name <em>*</em></label><br /> <input name="user" id="user" value=" " title="Name" class="required-entry input-text" type="text" /> </div> <div class="input-box"> <label class="required" for="email">Email <em>*</em></label><br /> <input name="email" id="email" value="" title="Email" class="required-entry input-text validate-email" type="text" /> </div> <div class="clear"></div> <div class="input-box aw-blog-comment-area"> <label class="required" for="comment">Comment <em>*</em></label><br /> <textarea name="comment" id="comment" title="Comment" class="required-entry input-text" style="height:150px;width:95%;" cols="50" rows="5"></textarea> </div> </li> <li><script type="text/javascript" src="http://api.recaptcha.net/challenge?k=6LfBe8kSAAAAAJzCJt8IKe8VZAc_kyGjtMoOdSCK"></script> <noscript> <iframe src="http://api.recaptcha.net/noscript?k=6LfBe8kSAAAAAJzCJt8IKe8VZAc_kyGjtMoOdSCK" height="300" width="500" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/> <textarea name="recaptcha_challenge_field" rows="3" cols="40"></textarea> <input type="hidden" name="recaptcha_response_field" value="manual_challenge"/> </noscript></li> </li> </ul> </fieldset> <div class="button-set" style="width:96%"> <input name="post_id" type="hidden" value="31" /> <p class="required" style="width:100%">* Required Fields</p> <button class="button" type="submit"><span><span>Submit Comment</span></span></button> </div> </form> <script type="text/javascript"> var contactForm = new VarienForm('postComment', false);
