Larry Kellner Quotations

My fellow co-workers and I extend our heartfelt sympathies to the family and friends of the mechanic involved in this tragic event.

We're pretty comfortable with our international growth strategy, ... Obviously as additional capacity comes in to some of those markets at the margin we're impacted by that.

I want to thank the IAM leadership and its negotiating team for working together with Continental to get this deal done within the deadline set by the National Mediation Board. Now, we must go forward and get this agreement ratified.

Our support for March of Dimes is off to a strong start. Employees and their families and friends have embraced the concept of walking together to raise funds to help save babies from the complications of premature birth.

Continental's flexible growth plan is generating both strong earnings momentum and cash flow.

Continental is in solid financial shape. We're acquiring the right planes at the right price at the lowest interest rates in years.

Thanks to the continued sacrifices and hard work of my co-workers, we were able to post an operating profit for the quarter. Our plan is working because we have the right people, the right fleet and the right facilities to deliver an industry leading product.

As we head into 2006 we continue to face low cost carrier competition in our domestic markets, a weak domestic fare environment, high fuel costs, and we expect to report a significant loss in the first quarter of 2006.

This is just one small way that we can help to meet the immediate needs of the many evacuees in desperate need of help.
