      Part III of the Report is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:


ITEM 10.         DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT.

DIRECTORS

         Directors are elected at the annual meeting of stockholders and hold
office until the next annual meeting and until their respective successors have
been duly elected and have qualified.

         Pursuant to a stockholders' agreement, Air Canada and Air Partners
have agreed to vote their shares for the election of six directors designated
by Air Canada, six directors designated by Air Partners and six directors who
are "Independent Directors" (as defined in the stockholders' agreement)
satisfactory to Air Partners.  The Creditors Committee (as defined in the
stockholders' agreement) has the right to designate three of the six
Independent Directors, and one of the three other Independent Directors must be
the Chief Executive Officer.  Air Canada has elected to designate only four
directors pursuant to the stockholders' agreement.

         Air Canada has the right, subject to foreign ownership restrictions
("Foreign Ownership Restrictions"), which currently limit to 25% the voting
interest of non-U.S. citizens in U.S. airlines, to convert shares of Class B
common stock into shares of Class A common stock.  Also, Air Canada has the
right, in certain limited circumstances, to convert its Class A common stock
into Class C common stock, and Air Partners has the right, in certain limited
circumstances, to convert its Class A common stock into Class D common stock.
No person may hold or own Class C common stock or Class D common stock,
respectively, other than Air Canada and certain of its affiliates or Air
Partners and certain of its affiliates.  The Class C common stock and Class D
common stock, if issued, would preserve the rights of Air Canada and Air
Partners, respectively, to elect six directors to the Company's Board in
certain circumstances, including a sale by the other party of its stock.

         The following table shows, with respect to each of the current
non-employee directors of Continental, (i) such person's name and age, (ii) the
period for which such person has served as a director of the Company, (iii) all
positions and offices with the Company currently held by such person and his or
her principal occupation during the last five years (including other
directorships and business experience) and (iv) the standing committees of the
Board of Directors of which such person is a member.  There is no family
relationship between any of the directors or between any director and any
executive officer.

         Each director, executive officer (and, for a specified period, certain
former directors and executive officers), certain trusts and other entities with
which such individuals are affiliated, and each holder of greater than ten
percent of a class of the Company's equity securities is required to report to
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") his or her pertinent
position or relationship, as well as transactions in such securities, by certain
specified dates.  A trust for which Mr. Pogue serves as trustee, and two trusts
for which Mr. Sturm serves as trustee, failed to timely file initial statements
of beneficial ownership of certain of the Company's equity securities, although
each of such individuals timely filed reports reflecting the interest he is
deemed to have in the shares of common stock of the Company held by the
respective trusts.  Michael Bonds, Staff Vice President and Controller of the
Company, failed to timely file his initial statement of beneficial ownership
upon his election to such position.  David Siegel, then Vice President-Route
Scheduling of the Company, failed to timely file a statement of changes in
beneficial ownership with respect to a purchase of common stock in 1994, which
he reported instead on his annual statement of changes in beneficial ownership,
which was not filed with the Commission by the specified date.  John Luth, a
former Senior Vice President of the Company, failed to timely file a report with
respect to two purchases of common stock that occurred after his resignation. 
Finally, Air Canada's reports with respect to one transaction in 1994 and one
transaction in 1995 were not timely filed.  In each of the foregoing cases, 
appropriate forms were subsequently filed.

(1)   Messrs. Bethune, Brenneman, Kellner and McLean commenced employment with
      the Company in February 1994, April 1995, June 1995 and April 1994,
      respectively.

(2)   The value of restricted stock shown was calculated by multiplying the
      closing price of the Class B common stock on the date the restricted
      shares were granted by the number of restricted shares as follows: Mr.
      Bethune - 50,000 shares at $14.125 and 25,000 shares at $21.375; Mr.
      Brenneman - 75,000 shares at $16.00; Mr. Kellner - 50,000 shares at
      $17.25; Mr. McLean - 10,000 shares at $11.50 and Mr. Simon - 10,000
      shares at $21.375.  At the end of 1995, the aggregate number of
      restricted shares held by Messrs. Bethune, Brenneman, Kellner, McLean and
      Simon was 67,400, 75,000, 50,000, 10,000 and 10,000, respectively, and
      the year-end values of such shares were $2,931,900, $3,262,500,
      $2,175,000, $435,000 and $435,000, respectively, based on the December
      29, 1995 closing price of the Class B common stock of $43.50.  The shares
      held by Messrs. Bethune and Simon vested in 50% increments on March 15,
      1995 and 1996.  The shares held by Mr. Brenneman vest in 25% increments
      on October 27, 1995 and April 27, 1996, 1997 and 1998.  The shares held
      by Mr. Kellner vest in 25% increments on December 6, 1995 and June 5,
      1996, 1997 and 1998.  The shares held by Mr. McLean vest in 50%
      increments on April 4, 1996 and 1997.  Although the Company has paid no
      dividends on its common stock, any dividends would be payable upon both
      vested and non-vested shares.

(3)   Represents a tax adjustment relating to termination of certain

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

      Continental has entered into an amended and restated employment agreement
with Mr. Bethune relating to his service as an officer of the Company.  The
agreement provides for an annual base salary of not less than $550,000,
participation in any Company cash bonus program at the maximum level available
to any executive, a supplemental executive retirement plan, flight benefits,
and certain other matters.  Pursuant to the supplemental executive retirement
plan, Mr. Bethune receives a base retirement benefit in the form of an annual
straight life annuity in an amount equal to the product of (1) 1.6% times (2)
the number of his credited years of service times (3) his final average
compensation.  The agreement may be terminated at any time by either party,
with or without cause.  The agreement is for a three-year term of employment
beginning in June 1995 and is automatically extended for an additional
three-year period on each successive third anniversary of such date.  If Mr.
Bethune's employment is terminated because the Company elects to permit his
employment agreement to expire or by the Company for reasons other than death,
incapacity, cause or material breach of the agreement, then the Company shall
(i) cause all options and shares of restricted stock awarded to Mr. Bethune to
vest immediately upon such termination, (ii) make a lump-sum cash severance
payment to Mr. Bethune (calculated as described below), and (iii) provide Mr.
Bethune with out-placement services.  In addition, following any such
termination, benefits under the supplemental executive retirement plan continue
to be payable, and Mr. Bethune is provided flight benefits for the remainder of
his lifetime.  Such termination benefits are also awarded to Mr. Bethune if he
terminates the employment agreement for certain specified causes.  The
severance payment referred to above is equal to three times the sum of (a) Mr.
Bethune's then current base salary (of not less than $550,000) and (b) a deemed
annual bonus equal to 25% of such salary. Additionally, the Company is required
to continue providing certain employee benefits to Mr. Bethune for certain
specified time periods following a termination of employment and to maintain
life insurance on his behalf in an amount equal to the severance payment
described above.  Mr. Bethune is indemnified by the Company for his tax
obligations with respect to payments under the agreement to the extent that
such payments are subject to an excise or other special additional tax that
would not have been imposed absent such payment.

       Continental has entered into an amended and restated employment
agreement with Mr. Brenneman relating to his service as an officer of the
Company.  The agreement provides for an annual base salary of not less than
$525,000, stock options to purchase 275,000 shares of Class B common stock, a
restricted stock grant for 75,000 shares of Class B common stock, participation
in any Company cash bonus program at the maximum level available to any
executive, flight benefits, and certain other matters. The agreement may be
terminated at any time by either party, with or without cause.  The agreement
is for a three-year term of employment beginning in June 1995 and is
automatically extended for an additional three-year period on each successive
third anniversary of such date.  If Mr. Brenneman's employment is terminated
because the Company elects to permit his employment agreement to expire or by
the Company for reasons other than death, incapacity, cause or material breach
of the agreement, then the Company shall (i) cause all options and shares of
restricted stock awarded to Mr. Brenneman to vest immediately upon such
termination, (ii) make a lump-sum cash severance payment to Mr. Brenneman
(calculated as described below), and (iii) provide Mr. Brenneman with
out-placement services.  In addition, following any such termination, Mr.
Brenneman is provided with flight benefits for the remainder of his lifetime.
Mr. Brenneman is also entitled 



                                      8

<PAGE>   10

to such termination benefits if he terminates the employment agreement for
certain specified causes.  The severance payment is equal to three times the sum
of (1) Mr. Brenneman's then current base salary (of not less than $525,000) and
(2) a deemed annual bonus equal to 25% of such salary. Additionally, the Company
is required to continue providing certain employee benefits to Mr. Brenneman for
certain specified time periods following a termination of employment and to
maintain life insurance on his behalf in an amount equal to the severance
payment described above. Mr. Brenneman is indemnified by the Company for his tax
obligations with respect to payments under the agreement to the extent that such
payments are subject to an excise or other special additional tax that would not
have been imposed absent such payment.
        
       Continental has entered into an amended and restated employment
agreement with each of Messrs. Kellner, McLean, and Simon, which agreements
contain substantially identical terms and provide for an annual base salary of
not less than $350,000, $300,000 and $300,000, respectively, participation in
any Company cash bonus program at the maximum level available to any executive,
flight benefits, and certain other matters.  Each of the agreements may be
terminated at any time by either party, with or without cause.  Each agreement
is for a three-year term of employment beginning in June 1995.  If the
applicable executive's employment is terminated by the Company for reasons
other than death, incapacity, cause or material breach of the agreement, then
the Company shall (i) make a lump-sum cash severance payment to the executive
(calculated as described below), and (ii) provide the executive with
out-placement services.  In addition, following any such termination, each
agreement provides the executive with flight benefits for the remainder of his
lifetime under certain circumstances.  Each of the executives is also entitled
to such benefits if he terminates the employment agreement for certain
specified causes.  The severance payment referenced above is equal to the
product of (A) the sum of (1) the executive's then current base salary and (2)
a deemed annual bonus equal to 25% of such salary, multiplied by (B) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the severance
period (defined below) and the denominator of which is 12.  If the executive's
employment is terminated within two years after a change in control, the
severance period means the period commencing on the date of termination and
continuing for 36 months.  If the executive's employment is terminated prior to
a change in control or after the date which is two years after a change in
control, the severance period means the period commencing on the date of
termination and continuing for 24 months.  The Company is also required to
continue providing certain employee benefits to the executives for certain
specified time periods following a termination of employment.  Each of the
executives is indemnified by the Company for his tax obligations with respect
to payments under his agreement to the extent that such payments are subject to
an excise or other special additional tax that would not have been imposed
absent such payment.

RETIREMENT PLAN

      The Continental Airlines, Inc. Retirement Plan (the "Retirement Plan"),
adopted in 1988, is a noncontributory, defined benefit pension plan.
Substantially all employees of Continental and certain designated affiliates
are eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan.

      The following table represents the estimated annual benefits payable in
the form of a single life annuity to participants in specified service and
compensation categories under the Retirement Plan. The values reflected in the
table represent the application of the Retirement Plan formula to the specified
amounts of final average compensation and years of service. Under the
Retirement Plan, final average compensation means the average of the
participant's highest five consecutive years of compensation during the last
ten calendar years with Continental.  Final average compensation includes
regular pay and shift differential, but excludes bonuses, overtime, severance
pay, incentive and other special forms of pay.  Regulations under the Code
previously limited compensation covered by the Retirement Plan to $235,840 and
since December 1994 have limited such compensation to $150,000.

</TABLE>


     The estimated credited years of service for Messrs. Bethune, McLean and
Simon are two years, two years and nine years, respectively.  Messrs. Brenneman
and Kellner will be eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan after
completing one year of service with the Company.  In addition, Mr. Bethune's
employment agreement provides for certain supplemental retirement benefits,
which benefits will be offset by amounts received under the Retirement Plan.
See "Employment Agreements," above.  Under the Retirement Plan, a retired
participant's annual benefit commencing at or after the normal retirement age
of 65 (60 for pilots) is equal to 1.19% of the participant's final average
compensation plus 0.45% of the participant's final average compensation in
excess of the average Social Security wage base, multiplied by the
participant's years of participation up to a maximum of 30 years.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

     The Company's executive compensation programs are administered by the
Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors. The committee is composed
of six independent, non-employee directors, and no member of the committee has
been an officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Karen
Hastie Williams who chairs the Human Resources Committee is a Partner of
Crowell & Moring, a law firm that has provided services to the Company and its
subsidiaries for many years.


ITEM 12.   SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT.

VOTING RIGHTS AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

         The following table sets forth, as of April 1, 1996 (except as
otherwise set forth below), certain information with respect to persons owning
beneficially (to the knowledge of the Company) more than five percent of any
class of the Company's voting securities. The table also sets forth the
respective general voting power of such persons. In accordance with regulations
promulgated by the Commission, the table shows the effect of the exercise of
warrants owned by the person in question, and, in the case of Air Canada, the
exchange of certain shares of Class B common stock for Class A common stock,
but, in determining the denominator used to show percentage ownership of such
person, does not assume the exercise of warrants or the exchange of shares
owned by any other person.




                                      10
<PAGE>   12
         The table does not show under "General Voting Power" the effect of Air
Canada's potential exchange of certain shares of Class B common stock for an
equal number of shares of Class A common stock, because the voting of most of
the Class A common stock acquirable as a result of such exchange would
currently be prohibited by applicable Foreign Ownership Restrictions. Such
information is, however, shown in the footnotes to the table.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

         Continental Micronesia, Inc. ("CMI") and United Micronesia Development
Association, Inc. ("UMDA"), which is controlled by the estate of Larry L. 
Hillblom and is the minority stockholder of CMI, have a services agreement
whereby UMDA is paid a fee of 1.0% of CMI's gross revenue, as defined, which
will continue until January 1, 2012.  During 1995, these fees totaled $6
million.  As of December 31, 1995, the Company had a payable of $7 million
maturing in 2011 to UMDA.  Annual payments of such payable aggregating $1
million per year are applied to reduce the 1.0% fee.                          

         In connection with Air Canada's investment in the Company, Air Canada,
Air Partners and the Company agreed to identify and pursue opportunities to
achieve cost savings, revenue enhancement or other synergies from areas of
joint operation between the Company and Air Canada.  The Company and Air Canada
have entered into a series of synergies agreements, primarily in the areas of
aircraft maintenance and commercial and marketing alliances (including
agreements regarding coordination of connecting flights).  The Company believes
that the synergies agreements allocate potential benefits to the Company and
Air Canada in a manner that is equitable and commercially reasonable, and
contain terms at least as favorable to the Company as could be obtained from
unrelated parties.  As a result of these agreements, Continental paid Air
Canada $38 million in 1995, and Air Canada paid Continental $16 million,
primarily relating to aircraft maintenance.

         In connection with America West's emergence from bankruptcy in August
1994, Continental acquired approximately 4.1% of the equity interest and 17.1%
of the voting power (exclusive of warrants to purchase an additional 802,860
shares of common stock) of the reorganized America West.  In February 1996,
Continental sold approximately 1.4 million shares of America West's common
stock for net proceeds of approximately $25 million in an underwritten public
offering.  Continental now owns approximately 1.0% of the equity interest and
7.9% of the voting power of America West (exclusive of warrants to purchase an
additional 802,860 shares of common stock).  Through partnerships that he
controls, Mr.  Bonderman has a significant interest in America West.

         The Company and America West entered into a series of agreements
during 1994 related to code sharing and ground handling that have created
substantial benefits for both airlines.  The services provided are considered
normal to the daily operations of both airlines.  As a result of these
agreements, Continental paid America West $11 million and America West paid
Continental $14 million in 1995.

         Prior to joining the Company in May 1995, Mr. Brenneman was a Vice
President with Bain & Company, Inc., a consulting firm that has provided
consulting services to the Company from time to time.  In addition, Mr.
Brenneman is the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder of
Turnworks, Inc. ("Turnworks"), which acted as a consultant to the Company prior
to May 1995.  Pursuant to, and in connection with the termination of, the
Turnworks consulting agreement, the Company paid Turnworks an aggregate of
$1,772,457 in 1995.

         On July 27, 1995 and August 10, 1995, Air Partners purchased from the
Company an aggregate of 154,113 and 328,660 shares of Class B common stock,
respectively, at purchase prices of $15.86 per share (with respect to a total
of 355,330 shares) and $13.40 per share (with respect to a total of 127,443
shares).  Of the total, 158,320 shares were purchased pursuant to the exercise
of antidilution rights granted to Air Partners under the Certificate of
Incorporation and the remaining 324,453 shares were purchased pursuant to the
exercise of antidilution rights granted to Air Canada under the Certificate of
Incorporation (which rights were purchased by Air Partners immediately prior to
their exercise on August 10, 1995).

         On September 29, 1995, Continental purchased from Air Canada warrants
to purchase an aggregate of 1,367,880 shares of Continental's Class A common
stock and 4,849,755 shares of Class B common stock for an  aggregate purchase
price of approximately $56 million (including a waiver fee of $5 million paid to
a major creditor of the Company), of which Continental paid approximately $14
million in cash and a $42 million one-year note (which note was subsequently
repaid).  The 6,217,635 warrants purchased had exercise prices of $15.00 per
share (as to 3,706,667 shares) and $30.00 per share (as to 2,510,968 shares).
