EWR to MAD in business. This is the late 10pm flight on a 757-200. The cabin crew were great, food was served quickly (requested the executive meal option to maximize sleep time), as were the drinks. FAs refilled drinks often, and within an hour and a half I was asleep. I slept comfortably until about 25 minutes before landing in MAD. Immediately I woke up I was given a light breakfast and coffee etc. Overall a great trip, and I like the 757 for the shortish NYC - Western Europe flights. Given the size of the plane, boarding, etc is all pretty quick and easy.

West Palm Beach to San Jose, California in economy. The flight attendants actually seemed to like their jobs! They provided corn flakes, milk banana and muffin, free of charge. Drink runs frequent. Now if Continental would serve free wine on their flights to Europe, I would consider flying them to London. For the one-way flight, I only paid $117.50 and earned 2,600 frequent flyer miles.

GLA-EWR-LAS Boeing 757-200 in Business class. Check in was quick and efficient in Glasgow. Service onboard excellent, friendly FAs and a nice meal. Got to Newark 2 hours late but it turned out that the flight to LAS was delayed for 2 hours as the same aircraft from GLA was being used! The next flight EWR-LAS was good, friendly and efficient service. PHX-EWR-GLA Again we had a thirty minute delay but I was getting used to all the Continental delays by now! Again, great service and food quality. The few bad points were the delays, the size of the planes (757 quite small for 8hr long flights).

MAN-EWR-TPA Business Class. Welcomed warmly at Manchester by Concierge and checked in within minutes, used fast-lane and in the lounge within 15mins of checking in. Escorted onto the aircraft by the concierge who ensured we had everything we needed. Welcome and provided champagne, amenity kit, menu and newspapers/magazines. Drinks and warm nuts once airborne, brunch served course by course. All very good and much better than expected. Warm cookies and more drinks were offered later in the flight. An hour from Newark served with a hot beef and cheese sandwich, smoked salmon and salad and rounded off with a chcolate. Transfer at Newark very painless and onto next flight to Tampa. The flight was 2hrs 46mins and disappointed that only pretzels offered - drinks from the bar were served in generous measures and more than once. Staff throughout both flights were friendly and entertaining - much better than I was expecting and I enjoyed both my flights.

SMF-IAH return, 737-800 on both legs. Definitely one of the better airlines if you want to travel domestically within the US. The flights were smooth and on-time. What differentiated Continental most from every other major domestic airline was that they still serve a full meal, which didn't help me too much since I am vegetarian. But I was able to at least have a salad and a drink on the flight, which is still better than the small packet of peanuts most airlines give you.

Vancouver-Houston return First Class. Nice clean B737 each way and quite comfortable or a domestic product. Movie each way although the headphones are cheap and donīt work that well. Outbound breakfast service from Vancouver was excellent. Nicely presented, good quality and decent quantity. Cabin attendant great. Return was a different story. Very basic snack served. Low in quality and quantity. Cabin attendant did the minimum and the disappeared behind the curtain. No lounge access or priority tags for luggage. Continental seem to be very inconsistent with their flights.

BUF-CLE-PHX/PHX-EWR-BUF economy. Check in at Buffalo very efficient, got seat 1A in RJ145 to CLE. CLE-PHX (overbooked, and stuck with middle seat, but it ended up being an emergency exit row, so pleasantly surprised. Inflight service better than expected with a light meal and two drink services. Return flight (PHX-EWR) was fine, but no entertainment at all (again, a newer 737). Checked in online again, which was smart as the old Terminal 2 at PHX was overcrowded and slow, and only dropped off my checked bag. Almost no facilities there. Flight fully booked. Concourse C at EWR was surprisingly pleasant for a stop over, returned on a Dash 8-Q400 operated by Colgan, offered a snack, and flight fine.

EDI-EWR-DIA. flight crew on both legs attentive and courteous. Good selection of movies. Unfortunately 3 gate changes in Newark in space of 10 mins very confusing, keeps you fit walking the length of Newark liberty but wouldn't like to do it when airport busy.

IAH-NRT left 4 hours late. No explanation given by any employee behind the desk at the departure gate. Consequently, I missed the connecting flight in NRT. All passengers were told that CO representatives would meet the plane in NRT to accomodate the connecting passengers. This was also reinforced by the crew on-board. No CO employee meet the flight.

Manchester - Newark. Got exit row seats going and extra leg room. On the way back we had no problems through check in and staff were helpful and friendly. Only blip and it couldn't be helped, we were stuck on the runway for over 4 and half hours due to a light not working in the cockpit, 1 cup of water was given out during this time, and we couldn't use the toilet as there was no power for flushing. Had normal seats this time and they aren't very comfortable for trying to sleep especially when you sat in them for an extra 4+ hours. Air staff were fine and food was ok, but we would have eaten anything by the time we did get something coming back.

SAN-IAH-OKC return economy. 737-800 service to/from San Diego was comfortable and efficient. Planes were full, but flight attendants professional and efficient. Lunch consisting of a chicken sandwich and salad nothing spectacular, but was appreciated. Flight attendants made multiple drink runs. Only issue we had was with the entertainment system. For some reason, on the outbound flight the left ear audio was in Spanish, and the right ear audio was in English, but for the movie only. Flights to/from Oklahoma City was on Continental Express. Not much to report on this 1 hour flight. From others' comments, it appears as if service can be really warm and professional or cold and uncaring. I believe the difference is where the flight attendants originate. I have experience that those based in Newark are much colder and indifferent, while those based in Houston are more personable and smile more often. If someone from Continental reads these reviews, please, please make the service more consistent, especially with Newark-based crews!

Miami-Newark-Rome return. Flight attendants from Mia to Newark were tired rude almost comical in their disgraceful performance. Newark to Rome, everyone was wonderful and the trip was great due to their caring manner and attitude. The plane was a 767-400, very nice and would fly again - of course bring your own food and entertainment. Rome to Newark flight was ok, flight attendents not as great, served lunch at 9:30 in the morning (flight was at 8:30am) no food until one hour before flight landed, so a ten hour flight not even one snack they brought out snack cart after 1 hour before arrival. Newark to Mia, terrible rude tired staff, flight full.

LAX-EWR-LAX both on B757-200 clean on both ways, at $299 you get free PTV with AVOD, lots of music selection, games etc. On my way to EWR serve with breakfast of egg and cheese bagel plus fruit, crew nice and attentive. Going back to LAX attentive and nice crew again, dinner of salad, sub sandwich and some fruit snacks to nibble. Terminal at EWR is nice and clean too.

Edinburgh - Newark (NY) - Fort Lauderdale return. I can honestly say we have never encountered such a large number of rude (or bored) and disinterested staff (mainly ground staff) working for one company as we did on this trip. One of the check in staff in Fort Lauderdale actually said to me, and I quote 'I hear you lady, but I am not listening' and that just about sums up our experience of Continental Airlines. We did meet one cheerful and helpful ground staff member at the check in at Fort Lauderdale and the staff on the final leg of our journey (Newark to Edinburgh) were professional, and courteous. We have travelled with Continental Airlines previously with no problems. Sadly our experience this time round was one of huge disappointment to put it mildly.
