Continental Airlines has partnered with US Helicopter, which is expanding its service for the second time in its first year of operation, to offer shuttle service between Manhattan and the airline's Newark hub beginning Dec. 18.
Bags checked at the heliport will be checked through to the passenger's final travel destination. At Newark Liberty Airport, customers will arrive at a dedicated US Helicopter parking location on the secure side of Terminal C, where they will then be able to proceed directly to the departure gate for their Continental flight.
US Helicopter, which launched service in February, already partners with American on its service from Manhattan to New York's Kennedy Airport.
US Helicopter has said it expects to add service from a second New York location, the East 34th Street Heliport, shortly after Jan. 1. It currently operates from only the Downtown Manhattan Heliport at the foot of the East River and Wall Street, and opening the second location has been contingent on working out security arrangements.
