The Convenience of Continental Airlines

Although UK’s Bristol Airport provides direct flights to only two US destinations many travellers are using the extensive Continental Airlines network to reach final destinations within the United States and beyond.

Bristol airport has reported that the top five destinations for business travellers during 2008 were: Houston, Chicago, Indianapolis, Atlanta and Cleveland.

The most popular destinations for leisure passengers during 2008 were Orlando, Las Vegas, Boston, San Francisco and Tampa.

Continental airlines has a long and illustrious history extending back over 70 years after having been formed, in 1934, by Walter T.Varney and Louis Mueller. In 1936 40% of the company was sold to Robert Six who went on to head the company for an incredible 40 years. It was Robert Six who changed the company name to Continental Airlines in 1937 and move the company headquarters from El Paso to Denver in the same year.

During WWII Continental Airlines were responsible for the maintenance of B-17 flying fortresses and B-29 super fortresses. The Pacific experience gained during the war years led to them establishing their trans-pacific service under the name of Air Micronesia. It was during the 1970s that Continental airline’s list of services increased dramatically including the introduction of new routes from Los Angeles to New Zealand and Australia. Continental Airlines’ list of destination airports extends way beyond the boundaries of North America and includes over 500 airports worldwide.

The Continental Airlines service flying between Bristol and New York has made it easy for travellers to book onward flights. Around 50% of the travellers flying from Bristol have used the Continental airlines network to reach their final destinations after picking up a connecting flight in New York. Since its introduction in May 2005 the New York service has carried over 250,000 passengers.

The Continental airlines network makes planning and booking a journey, either for business or pleasure, hassle free and the convenience of starting out from Bristol is, for many travellers, an added bonus.

For some great savings always book your Bristol airport parking space in advance. And why not take advantage of one of the many excellent Bristol airport hotels?
