This year, Continental Airlines will increase its schedule of flights between its New York hub at Newark Liberty International Airport and London Heathrow. The airline will add a fourth daily service to the route in March and a fifth daily service in October, bringing the total number of Continental daily departures to Heathrow to seven, including its twice-daily service from Houston.

In addition, Continental has confirmed that effective 1 June 2010 all aircraft scheduled for Heathrow flights will feature its new, flat bed seats in BusinessFirst.

“New York-Heathrow is a flagship route for Continental. As the leading airline in the New York market, we are excited about introducing these schedule and product improvements for our New York-London travelers,” said Jeff Smisek, the airline’s chairman, president and chief executive officer. “All our New York-London customers will benefit from more flight options, while those traveling to London in BusinessFirst – whether from New York or Houston -- will be assured of a flat bed seat whenever they choose to fly with us.”
