| Description |
This is the last photo of a Continental-titled aircraft I have ever taken. At the time of this photo in February 2012, the integration of United and Continental was nearly complete, with all Continental flights using United callsigns, and only a dozen or so aircraft still in Continental titles, all of them 737-800s. Two weeks later, on 3 March 2012, the two airlines combined their passenger reservation systems into one system, which uses the old Continental system with the new United branding; all public vestiges of Continental Airlines ceased to exist at that point. And by April 2012, all Continental aircraft received United titles. Under the registration number, the smaller markings say "Operated by CALA014A" - CALA014A was the Air Operating Certificate number for Continental, and now is the Air Operating Certificate number for the post-merger United. That may be necessary because Continental's registrations are rather generic - N followed by five numbers, with only the last three digits having any significance, as Continental's internal airframe number. In this case, airframe number is 275 (2xx and 5xx are for Boeing 737-800s); after repaint into United titles, Continental airframe numbers get a 0 added to front (this plane would become 0275) to comply with legacy United's 4-digit numbers.
