In-flight Entertainment

From current movie and music hits to old favorites, Continental Airlines knows how to entertain you; free when you use your own headset.

Continental Offers Free Entertainment

Enhanced inflight program gives option to use your own headset.

Continental Airlines has enhanced its audio/video inflight entertainment. You can use your own headset at no charge on board a Continental operated flight and enjoy feature films or short-subject programs.

If you need a headset, they can be purchased for $1 or one Continental Currency coupon on board Continental aircraft.

The charge is applicable on flights:

  • within the contiguous United States
  • to/ from Alaska, Hawaii and Canada
  • to/ from select destinations in Mexico, the Caribbean and the mid-Pacific.

You may keep and reuse your purchased headset on your next Continental flight. Continental will continue to offer free headsets on select international flights.

These new headsets fit easily over-the-ear, versus over-the-head, and utilize twin pin jacks. Customers who use personal headsets with single pins may not receive stereo sound on some aircraft.

Programming Philosophy

Our goal is to provide quality inflight entertainment appealing to a general audience and representing our diverse and global customer base.

The movie editing standards used by most global airlines are provided by the film studios. While the majority of our programming is edited for content, R-rated programming (including airline edited versions) will not be shown on aircraft with overhead screens. We appreciate your business, and we hope you enjoy your flight.
