Lake Tahoe (TVL)!
20. Correct! Pacific pioneered jet service into TVL with the 727 (which may have resulted in a jet ban for a number of years at Lake Tahoe once the airline ceased jet ops at the airport and went back to the F-27 for its service into this interesting airfield located just south of the largest lake in the Sierra Nevada mountains).

And, of course, this engenders a bonus quiz item:

22. A 1966 Pacific Air Lines route map depicted nonstop jet service operated with the 727 from Lake Tahoe to three destinations. Name all three.
