Star Alliance partners Continental Airlines and Brussels Airlines have announced plans to start codesharing on Continental Airlines trans-Atlantic flights between New York and Brussels, as well as on selected flights operated by each carrier on both sides of the Atlantic.

Continental Airlines has announced the expansion of its mobile boarding pass service to London's Heathrow Airport, becoming one of the first carriers to offer paperless boarding passes on nonstop flights from the United Kingdom to the U.S. The service allows customers to receive boarding passes electronically on their cell phones or Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and eliminates the need for paper boarding passes.
