Guess The Airline – July 2000 answer

How to guess it?

Thanks to J. for giving out the clues to guess the mystery airline. It was Continental Airlines, of course. First of all, America West Airlines is listed on the ad’s border, and AWA is a OnePass partner. Secondly, 1-800-525-0208 is a Continental Airlines number. And lastly, the most obvious clue is the colors used: blue background and yellow writing, just like on the timetables and websites… and of course, other advertisements.
