Continental Express

Continental Express is the operating name of ExpressJet for Continental Airlines. ExpressJet is no longer a wholly owned subsidiary of Continental Airlines, and they operate an all regional jet fleet. Continental Express used to fly turbo-props, however Continental has contracted with other airlines such as Commutair, Gulfstream, and SkyWest to operate as Continental Connection on short-haul routes.
ExpressJet hubs in Houston, Texas's George Bush Intercontinental Airport, Newark, New Jersey's Newark Liberty International Airport, and Cleveland, Ohio's Hopkins International Airport. ExpressJet operates Embraer ERJ-135's and Embraer ERJ-145's.
In the past, other airlines, such as Trans Colorado Airlines had used the Continental Express name. Trans Colorado Airlines was operating back when Continental had operations in Stapleton Airport in Denver, Colorado. They walked out of Stapleton due to high landing fees. Stapleton has since been bulldozed in favor of Denver International Airport.
