Continental Changing Terminals In Denver

Here's a quick heads up to the Continental flyers who might be going in or out of Denver in the near future - the airline changed terminals yesterday due to its alliance switch, something that it has already done in places like Chicago, Frankfurt, and Tokyo.

A few months ago, Continental moved from SkyTeam to the Star Alliance, which appears to be the motivation for the move from Concourse A to B. The latter is primarily used by United, who currently operates a hub there. So passengers who are moving from one of Continental's ten flights a day (from Cleveland, Houston and Newark) to a United flight (and vice-versa) can now avoid a train ride between terminals. Fellow Star Carrier US Airways is moving there as well.

While the move does make life easier for passengers, it will also save Continental some money as it will be closing its Presidents Club in Concourse A on March 16. Instead, club members, Star Alliance Gold flyers, and BusinessFirst passengers will instead have access to United's two Red Carpet Clubs in Denver.
