Mammoth Yosemite Airport (IATA: MMHICAO: KMMHFAA LID: MMH) is a town-owned public airport seven miles east of Mammoth Lakes, in Mono County, California. Also known as Mammoth Lakes Airport or Mammoth-June Lake Airport, it is mainly used for general aviation, but has scheduled passenger flights operated by two airlines, one of which only serves the airport on a seasonal basis during the winter sports season.

The airport had 665 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008, 6,157 enplanements in 2009, and 19,814 in 2010.

In 2010 the airport had 8,285 aircraft operations, average 22 per day: 68% general aviation, 20% air taxi, 12% airline, and <1% military. Three aircraft were then based at this airport, all single-engine.

JetSuiteX has announced it will operate an Embraer ERJ-135 regional jet on its new seasonal service.
