Eastern Sierra Regional (BIH) Airport Car Service

BIH (Eastern Sierra Regional Airport, also known as Bishop Airport) sits about 2 miles southeast of Bishop in Inyo County, California, accessible via US 395. The airport is owned and operated by the County of Inyo and serves as a general aviation gateway for the broader Eastern Sierra corridor including Bishop, Lone Pine, Mammoth Lakes, and the Death Valley and Mono Lake destinations. There is no scheduled commercial service. Our chauffeurs stage at the terminal area for charter and FBO pickups.

BIH to downtown Bishop runs about 5 to 10 minutes via US 395 northbound, and BIH to the broader Eastern Sierra corridor runs anywhere from 15 minutes to 90 minutes depending on destination. We handle daily transfers to area lodging including the Best Western Plus Bishop Lodge, the Vagabond Inn Bishop, and the Creekside Inn Bishop.

We handle daily winter ski transfers, summer Mammoth Mountain Bike Park pickups, and the broader Mammoth Lakes Lakes Basin pickup logistics.

Yes. The Eastern Sierra is one of the legendary trout fishing destinations in the United States, with the Owens River, Crowley Lake, and the broader Eastern Sierra alpine lakes generating consistent fishing tourism demand through BIH. We handle daily fishing charter transfers, the iconic Crowley Lake fishing opener (the last Saturday of April each year), and the broader Eastern Sierra outdoor recreation visitor transport.

Mono Lake (the legendary 760,000 year old saline lake with the iconic tufa tower formations, designated as a National Natural Landmark) and Lee Vining (the small Eastern Sierra town at the Mono Lake basin) both run about 45 to 60 minutes from BIH via US 395 northbound.

We handle daily Death Valley visitor transfers and Lone Pine Alabama Hills movie location tour pickups.

Eastern Sierra peak fishing season runs from late April through October, with the heaviest demand during the iconic Crowley Lake fishing opener weekend (the last Saturday of April each year) and the broader summer fishing months. The Mule Days celebration in Bishop each Memorial Day weekend also drives heavy demand. We recommend three to four weeks of lead time for peak fishing season SUV and Sprinter bookings.
