  • CONTINENTAL AIRLS INC Profile

    If it's a continent, chances are it's accessible via Continental Airlines. The carrier serves about 145 markets in the US and 140 in other countries from hubs in Cleveland; Houston; Newark, New Jersey; and Guam. Its network includes destinations served by regional carriers operating as Continental Express and Continental Connection. Overall, Continental has about 370 mainline jets and 270 aircraft in its regional operations. The carrier supplements its offerings through code-sharing with fellow members of the SkyTeam alliance, which includes Air France, Alitalia, Delta, KLM, and Northwest Airlines, as well as with other airlines. (Code-sharing allows airlines to sell tickets on one another's flights.)
