New York Air Merged into Continental as part of the consolidation of several airlines under the Texas Air Corporation umbrella, which aimed to create a more competitive and comprehensive network.
People Express - This was a significant merger as People Express was one of the largest low-cost carriers at the time. The merger allowed Continental to significantly expand its route network and customer base.
Frontier Airlines - The original Frontier Airlines was absorbed into Continental, which helped Continental increase its presence in the western United States and gain access to new markets.
These mergers were part of Continental's strategy to overcome financial challenges and position itself as a major player in the airline industry. They also led to operational and fleet integration challenges that Continental worked through in the subsequent years.
