What's wrong with plain ole "Continental". That's what I say to get the hotel discounts.

Just keep referring to it as "this great company". That should work fine.

T/R DISAGREE

Just refer to us as "ExpressJet Airlines d.b.a Continental Express. An airline that makes Mesa look like $hit!!!"

Boy, you have quite the axe to grind with Mesa. What did they ever do to you?

Contrats and welcome.

Yes, I'd say it depends on the context. When non-aviator types ask where I work and I say ExpressJet Airlines, I've literally been asked, "Now, are those the little propeller airplanes?" Now I just say Continental Express with the emphasis on Continental, and that's all they hear.

However, when making PA's, I'm sure to make the PAX aware that they are flying on ExpressJet Airlines. Well, unless it's a really crappy flight with lots of delays and they're all pissed - then it's COEX.

These things are important, you know.
