United Airlines To Fly Guam Schedules

As part of its merger with Continental Airlines under the United Continental Holdings umbrella, United Airlines is to take over some of its sister carrier’s flights from Guam. Continental Airlines has historically dominated traffic from the United States territory in the western Pacific Ocean and this summer accounted for more than 55 per cent of the weekly capacity. These flights were formally flown by Continental Micronesia, but from December last year were absorbed into the Continental mainline operation.

Now, from the Winter 2011/2012 schedules, flights will also be operated by United Airlines using Boeing 777-200ERs. According to latest GDS information from October 29, United will take over responsibility for the Guam – Honolulu service which extends to Chicago. This is currently flown using a Continental 767-200ER. United will also operate two of the three daily rotations between Guam and Tokyo Narita, again replacing Continental 767s, albeit a mix of -200ER and larger -400ER variants.
