edit High international travel exposure for U.S. based air carrier

Top Contributor: Tim Plaehn | Created when CAL was $21.02 | Edit | History

Continental Airlines earns approximatey 50% of its revenues from international air travel highest of U.S. based carriers. International air travel should grow faster than domestic travel. Also, many international routes have fewer travel options allowing higher profit margins. Finally, CAL has increased international exposure to new airports: London Heathrow, Mumbai and Shanghai.

edit Cash fund with airline attached!

Top Contributor: Tim Plaehn | Created when CAL was $21.05 | Edit | History

CAL finished 2007 with $2.8 billion in cash and currently (4/10/2008) has a market cap of $2.1 billion. Of course an airline can burn through cash in a hurry buying planes, fuel and paying their well salaried personal. Still it is a nice cash position. If the company can remain profitable in 2008 the stock should do very well.
