Continental Airlines Chosen as Best Airline for North American Travel By Business Traveler Magazine Readers

Continental Airlines (NYSE: CAL - News) outranked all other U.S. carriers to be chosen as the Best Airline for North American Travel in Business Traveler magazine's 2006 Readers' Choice Best in Business Travel Survey.

Continental also placed highest among U.S. airlines for Best Flight Attendants in the U.S. and Best In-flight Services in the U.S. The awards will be presented to the airline in New York on Jan. 11, 2007.

"Unlike our competitors, Continental Airlines has maintained cabin comforts and continues to provide meals at mealtimes," said Jim Compton, Continental's executive vice president of marketing. "Our BusinessFirst service is recognized to be among the best in the business and we continue to upgrade our international fleet with in-seat power and video on demand."

Yup. As I reported a few days back, it seems that airlines are back again on the green side and will shortly be making as much as they were pre 9/11. Thus that might be the way for investors to go.
