Answer 2

Per JD power:

Continental is rated same or higher than Delta in all categories.

My personal experience confirms.

I had a horrible day when I had to fly my relatives on Delta from JFK - they had some construction going on in the terminal, so they sent us around to three different places for check-in before someone was able to get it done, then nobody knew where to go for a security check, then they were sent back and forth looking for the gate.

I made a promise to never fly Delta after that!

Never had problems with Continental though... They are all charging for checking bags now. That stinks, but other than that - I pick CO!

LEM.

Answer 3

Delta no doubt is better. With their new addition of Northwest, they will soon be the biggest airline in America.

Answer 4

They are quite similar. I've had good service on both, so I can't pick on over the other.

Answer 5

I have heard people prefer Continental over Delta.  On some of their longer flights, Continental still serves a meal while other airlines only offer food for purchase.

Both are legacy carriers so I would not expect a huge difference in service.

Answer 6

Continental flys the most modern jet fleet, and seems to have the better serivce, so i would say them.

But they are both the best airlines in USA at this time.
