Continental Airlines has increased its fuel hedges for the remainder of this year and next as oil prices remain near record levels.

Houston-based Continental is making the move at the same time it has unveiled plans to cut the number of flights it operates worldwide because of fuel costs.

I haven't seen it mentioned on here. They are cutting flights to (from IAH) MIA, ORD, LGA, MCO, among others. In my case, I am happy they are leaving flights to PHL, FLL, and DEN alone.
