Continental Airlines Enters China Route Campaign

Continental Airlines is now entering the race for the next route to China. As of now, they are mainly competing against Delta Airplanes for a nonstop flight to Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG). The flights would depart from Cleveland Hopkins and Newark Liberty International airports. The US Department of Transportation (DOT) currently states that they will choose the airline on two main factors: Community support and amount of business the route will generate. Although I prefer Continental Airlines over Delta, I am hoping that Delta is granted the route. It will be their first service offered to mainland China. As of now, though, I am not sure how things will play out. I'll make sure to keep y'all updated on this matter.
