Almost half of Continental's fleet is comprised of regional jets and the ERJ145 is one of the most numerous models. Unlike many other domestic airlines, Continental does not have any of the much more spacious Embraer 170/175/195 with a significantly wider cabin in its fleet.

Configured in a single class of service, many Continental frequent flyers dislike this plane since there is no chance to upgrade. Unfortunately, Continental also uses this plane on long flights such as between Washington D.C. and Houston.

There is no in-flight entertainment of any kind, and power ports are not installed. Furthermore, only the right (BC) side has small overhead bins for small backpacks and purses. Anything larger will have to be checked at the gate. Also note that the curvature of the fuselage takes away about eight inches of foot space for the window passengers. Combined with tight shoulder space, it's best to avoid the C seats.
