Which cities would those be?

IAH-MEX immediately springs to mind, as well as a few transborders for our neighbor to the north.

733s are indeed used for international ops.

Another White Powder Express

If muling Bogota Bullion is what it takes for the airline to make money... who are we to criticize?

using all types of aircraft they have (except only the 733 and 735) for international flights.

733s are indeed used for international ops.

And they add to the Skyteam network.

...unlike OK and AM, but oh well; still better with 'em than without 'em.

Another White Powder Express . Seriously, CO is surely making good use of their assets, by essentially using all types of aircraft they have (except only the 733 and 735) for international flights. And they add to the Skyteam network.

Man they are surely using those 737s! They use 737s to fly Houston-POS and EWR-POS. Must be a cramped ride, but it is good to know that the 737s would do that run. Umm... how come they dont launch EWR-Cali? I can only imagine that it would be very profitable! (or do they already do that route and I am jsut oblivious!)

Good to hear that Continental is expanding

Continental Airlines today announced it will begin new daily nonstop service between Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport and Cali, Colombia, on July 15, pending government approval.

Continental will utilize a Boeing 737-700 aircraft on the approximately five-hour flight to Cali, with seating for 12 passengers in First Class and 112 in Coach. The flight will depart Houston at 3:45 p.m., arriving in Cali at 8:45 p.m. The return flight will depart Cali at 9:10 a.m., arriving in Houston at 2:05 p.m. Flights will be timed conveniently to allow connections in Houston for passengers arriving from/departing for Newark Liberty International Airport in the New York City area.
