IDAHO FALLS REGIONAL AIRPORT


'Idaho Falls Regional Airport' , formerly known as 'Fanning Field', is a public airport located in the northwest part of Idaho Falls, in Bonneville County, Idaho, USA. The airport has two runways. The airport terminal has been expanded twice and partially re-built once. The current terminal was built in 1959, expanded in 1982 and the boarding area torn down and retrofitted to accommodate smaller aircraft with jet ways in the mid-2000s (the previous layout was designed for 737s, which stopped arriving in Idaho Falls after Delta discontinued service in 2002).

Food and Beverage Service


The airport has a restaurant and lounge, named Kathryn's. The restaurant serves basic American fare and is traditionally open for breakfasts and lunches Monday through Saturday. At other times, sundries and basic food are available at Kathryn's Snack Shack, however there are no food or beverage services beyond the security checkpoint.
The airport has struggled to maintain a restaurant operator in the past. The restaurant has previously been "Das Kinder Haus" which served German food, "Dolores' Place" operated by local restaurant critic Dolores Casella, and "Runway 21" which tried to be an upscale steak house and coffee shop. The restaurant has been remodeled once in the 1980s.
