We travelled continental in 2004. We went via Newark and on to MCO. They were great still had meals included seat back tv/game screens. My 10 year old son was totally occupied all the way with the game section of it. It also had one of the card swipe thingys on it if you wanted to use the phone section on it. And all flights were on time.

Thank you! They appeal as they fly from Gatwick which is easier for us!

I've done Continental via Newark too and have no complaints. I'd do it again if the price was right.

Allie did you know that Continental code share with Virgin from Gatwick. So even though you book with Continental you may find yourself on a Virgin plane.

Couldn't recommend American Airlines. Flew to NY with them, poor service from start to finish, so won't be using them again.

have flown with all 3 and the best is probably contiential. Part of that is because of all the hub airports I find newark the easest to get through.

American tend to give a greater seat pitch in economy. Continental from Scotland used to be great over to Newark, but they are now using old fleet on the trip rather than the shiny ones they used to use. Delta I have never used.

Out of the AA and Continental, I would go with AA if you need the legroom or Continental otherwise myself - plus you can sometimes get Continental flights to the west coast US for £250 if you search around.

We have used all of them - and one is pretty much the same as the other.....so go by price. That is what I do.

We have flown both with Delta and Continental

out of these two, always would choose Continental, had a bad experience on Delta and wouldnt fly with them again, unless absolutley necessary.
