Continental Airlines completes installation of Audio/Video on demand system

Continental Airlines reported that an Audio/Video on Demand (AVOD) inflight entertainment system is now available to economy class customers on all its Boeing 757-200 aircraft. All 39 757-200s currently in service have been fitted with the system, and the remaining two aircraft are currently being retrofitted and will re-enter service by Dec. 23, 2008. The system has been available in the BusinessFirst cabins of these aircraft since early 2007. The aircraft are used primarily on trans-Atlantic flights to and from Continental’s New York hub at Newark Liberty International Airport.
