Continental will add capacity to “flagship” route

Continental Airlines will be boosting its schedule on the airline's key London Heathrow- New York (Newark) service from March.

An early evening departure will be added to its schedule – resulting in four daily services from London Heathrow. From 31^st October, this will increase to five-daily (with the introduction of a fifth daily service in the early morning).

Continental operates non-stop services to New York from Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Manchester, as well as Dublin and Shannon, serving more cities in the U.K. and Ireland than any other trans-Atlantic airline.
