What airport is this, and what type of plane did you come in on?

[–] OldFartPhil@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Eastern Sierra Regional Airport in Bishop, California. Currently served by United Airlines CRJ's.

Darn it, beat me to it :-).

Haha but you included more info. Did you know it or find it? I saw the word Bishop twice in the photo. Googled it. Found the airport. Flipped through street view photos and found the baggage claim.

I've been to Bishop, but never to the airport. I found a photo of the baggage claim on GIS, which brought me to a Japanese travel blog: https://npo.mirokuyamanokai.org/2022/08/24/37887 - plus Google translate, of course.

Someone else already mentioned while I was napping, but Eastern Sierra Regional Airport in Bishop, CA. Came in on a Canadair Regional Jet 700 operated by United Airlines.

the tumbleweed is a nice touch

I swear, no set dressing was involved! :)

I thought the tumbleweed was employed as a greeter, easy mistake.
