DIRECTV

Never leave home without your favorite show.

Continental is now installing DIRECTV® satellite programming on select aircraft. Please refer to the "Fleet Status" tab below. The service is complimentary in First Class and is available at each seat in Economy Class for a fee.

With more than 100 channels of live television and other programming and 9 channels of previously recorded programming such as premium movies, sitcoms, dramas and more, you'll be able to sit back, relax and enjoy your flight.

Recorded Programs

In addition to the DIRECTV selections, we offer a variety of pre-recorded programming options, including Hollywood movies and current sitcoms and dramas as well as entertainment programs.

We are in the process of installing DIRECTV® on all of our 737 Next Generation aircraft and our 757-300 aircraft. Check back with this page for the most current updates and information.
