paper timetable
I've always used the handsize paper timetables, and have always kept it handy. I've been waiting patently for CO to resume printing these. However, in the Feb "OnePass Update," they now state "Our timetable is now exclusively electronic." Well, thanks a lot CO, I don't keep a laptop with me 24/7. Drats.
Anyone else rely on the timetable booklet??

You can download a PDF of it and print it out.

That link should work, it is about a 1.5M download.
PS I understand that this is not a "solution" for you as it is not an easy to carry booklet. If you have a Palm/Pocket PC, you can download it there, that's what I rely on.

You can also subscribe to the OAG pocket edition. It does cost $99/year, but it has the schedules for flights on all airlines in the US, and is updated monthly. It's a lot bigger than CO's old paper schedule, but having information on all airlines makes it much more useful.

If CO would stop overhauling its flight schedule every month, paper timetables would make a lot more sense.
I think the lack of paper timetables might hurt CO's standing with some business travelers, who are more likely to pay the higher fares for the ability to change flights. It's hard to change flights when you have to log on or call an 800 number to find out what other departures are available.
