Summary

[edit]
Description

This Boeing 737, originally delivered to Continental in 1998, is operating United 1280 to Cleveland.

30 November 2011 marked a milestone in the United-Continental merger, where the two airlines operate under a single Air Operating Certificate. Although it is the old Continental's certificate, the name, and the air traffic control callsign, are United. Continental now no longer exists as a separate airline, even though Continental Airlines' separate pilot union contract and reservation system still remain.

Prior to the single AOC issuance, the two airlines did align their flight numbers, so that a given flight would use an identical flight number under both United and Continental systems. United flight numbers 1-200 and in the 1200 range are flown by the old Continental, though now, of course, they must use the United callsign.
