CO returns to Bangor nonstop from EWR for the first time since they retired their ATR fleet , twice daily ERJ-145s during the peak Summer months with one daily nonstop operating year round.

CO will fly nonstop EWR-Calgary with a daily 737-500

EWR-Albuquerque returns this time daily.

Also new CLE-ABQ Regional jet nonstops.

Ha! Great, ERJs CLE-ABQ... just what I wanna fly on. But, can't say I'm the least bit surprised.

Thanks for the updates. EWR-YYC sounds great.

The CLE-ABQ service is seasonal, 11 June through 3 September, and Saturday-only.

EWR-YYC is long overdue. In 2002 my former company was doing extensive business in the Calgary area between July and December, and I remember the absence of suitable CO service in the market (EWR-IAH-YYC isn't exactly ideal) was a bit of a headache for me.

I bounced between NW (MSP), UA (ORD), and AC (YYZ) for the bulk of my 3-5 monthly trips, and while the NW codeshare ensured me at least some benefits, the lack of consistency made my travels a little bit more of a hassle than usual, and it sticks out in my memory.

The next thing we need "north of the border" is EWR-YVR to go year-round, and perhaps IAH-YWG.

I fly four segments a week on those ERJ's. I rather like them. They are quick to board and deplane, and best of all, I get to sit on the port side of the aircraft, where I am *guaranteed* not to share my space with anybody else.

I'm guessing that ABQ is not exactly a high-demand market to CLE. What did you think they would send, a 757?

 Smile No, but it's another market that just screams for a ERJ170 or 190, isn't it?  Sad

I'd prefer not sit on an ERJ for 3+ hours. I figured they'd send a 737-500. I'm thinking we had CLE-ABQ as a route before operated with a 737?

I've been with CO 18 years, man, and it's the first CLE-ABQ I remember.

I'm surprised no CLE-SLC this summer. Would also love to see a seasonal CLE-PDX, as the one they ran around Thanksgiving last year was just packed, and that was with a 738.

Haven't seen it loaded. Only seasonal running this year seems to be ABQ and SEA.

Too bad Newark-Calgary is seasonal. 9 June 2005 through 6 September 2005.

Any chance that EWR-ABQ-EWR will, perhaps stay daily even after the summer season? There have been some whispers around ABQ that such a thing is not totally outside the realm of possibility.

About time that CO started EWR-BGR. There is only one non-stop each day from BGR to New York (American Eagle, timed for business travellers in that it leaves early and returns late), and DTW and CVG are a little out of the way for east coast connections, and BOS doesn't offer many (this is basically what BGR's service is). I think CO should be plenty successful on this route, as this adds an option for New York travel, and makes many more markets accessable from BGR.

actually I believe the CLE-ABQ is a 737-500 till OCt. 1, then it moves to a XRJ.


okay, I'm waiting for the rich to spread the wealth around to me. Please mail your checks to my house.

Nope. I looked at the schedule beginning June 11th while at a training class today-it's an XRJ, which ends at the end of September.

Not stating factual information, but for two flights a day with the knowledge that you are going to one (which will be a overnighter) the will probably use an outside contractor.
With that I would guess OH as they already handle NW/Pinnacle.

how did CLE-SLC do last year? I'm disappointed it's not back. I really thought, when CO announced the 10 year lease at CLE airport, that we would see a bit of a kick up in service, nothing drastic like a big bank or more full size jets, but incremental improvements. Been more losses-- DTW to Commutair, no more XNA, no more HOU. Those are the ones I noticed.
