Newark to Europe

CONTINENTAL AIRLINES will continue with its successful North Atlantic programme this winter from New York’s Newark Airport to no less than 16 European cities.  As previously noted in AERBT, Bristol is being dropped at the end of the summer season, largely a victim of the airline’s success at Heathrow with which it competes for passengers originating along the busy M4 motorway.  The single Bristol flight does not offer the spread of daily services that BusinessFirst users have come to expect at Heathrow, an extra flight being added for the winter season bringing Continental’s frequency up to five between London and New York.  All Heathrow services (including Houston) are now with sleeper seats, which are progressively being fitted to the airline’s 777 and 757 fleets.  In 2011 these will begin to be introduced on the 767s. www.continental.com
