Chattanooga and Cologne, Sarasota and Toledo, and more. These are cities that will lose all service under the Continental Airlines/Continental Express brand name as of this September 3. The Houston-carrier had said earlier it would cut capacity and but not give out details until it discusses the cuts with its employees. It did so Thursday, and the list includes some fair-sized burgs such as Oakland, Calif., just across the Bay from San Francisco, as well as Reno, Nev., and Montgomery, Ala. The list also includes Chattanooga, Tennessee, known for its rotunda-based architecture (above) and Toledo, Ohio's Express Airport.
For Oakland, this is the second carrier to announce a pullout; American Airlines said earlier it was abandoning the city near the City on the Bay. For Toledo, squeezed in the northwest corner of Ohio between Detroit and Cleveland, the news is a blow to the community's plan to revitalise the airport. Continental had just upgraded its service, and the airport proudly announced that growth in Houston service even as Delta ended its Atlanta flights to Toledo in May. The airport has seen its offering decline, falling from 50,000 seats a month to 20,000 month over the past three years.
For Chattanooga, the 'Gateway to Southeast Tennessee,' it's not good news, either. The airport lost Skybus in April when that carrier shut down. It did mark the inauguration of Detroit service on Northwest Airlink in early June. Both Toledo and Chattanooga have Allegiant service to Florida, but that barely touches on attracting business travellers to business destinations, the prime goal of these two and indeed almost any airport. But both these airports have been leaking potential flyers to nearby hubs, Toledo to Detroit and Chattanooga to Atlanta.
In addition to Cologne, Germany, Continental is closing other overseas stations: it will end all service to: Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia; Cali, Colombia; Guayaquil, Ecuador; Monclova, México, and Santiago in the Dominican Republic. The other US points losing service are Green Bay, Wis; Palm Springs, Calif; and Tallahassee, Fla.
This is where the island of Bali is a portion of some country of Indonesia.
Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
I love the expression. Everyone needs to express there own opinion and feel free to hear others. Keep it up :)
Way to focus and straight to your point, i love it. Keep up the work people. Dont let anyone stop us bloggers.
