Continental MicronesiaCMI/ CS

Continental Micronesia was a regional airline subsidiary of Continental Airlines that operated from 1968 until its merger into United Airlines in 2010, serving the Pacific island nations and territories of Micronesia from its main hub in Guam. The carrier specialized in providing essential air service to remote Pacific destinations including the Federated States of Micronesia, Palau, and the Marshall Islands, connecting these island communities to Guam and other regional centers. Operating primarily regional turboprop and narrow-body jet aircraft, Continental Micronesia carried both passengers and cargo on routes vital to the economic development and connectivity of the Pacific region. As part of the Continental Airlines family, the airline maintained operational standards consistent with its parent carrier while adapting its service model to the unique demands of island-hopping operations across vast ocean distances. Following Continental's merger with United Airlines, Continental Micronesia's operations were absorbed into United's Pacific regional network, ending the airline's 42-year independent operating history.
