March 5,1997


Continental Airlines, Inc.
2929 Allen Parkway
Houston, TX 77019


Subject:      Letter Agreement No. 1951-2R2 to
              Purchase Agreement No. 1951 -
              Seller Purchased Equipment


Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Letter Agreement amends Purchase Agreement No. 1951 dated
July 23, 1996(the Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing)
and Continental Airlines, Inc. (Buyer) relating to Model 737
aircraft (the Aircraft).  This Letter Agreement supersedes and
replaces in its entirety Letter Agreement 1951-2R1 dated October
10, 1996.

For purposes of this Letter Agreement the following definitions
apply:

Seller Purchased Equipment (SPE) is Buyer Furnished Equipment
(BFE) that Boeing purchases for Buyer.

Developmental Buyer Furnished Equipment (DBFE) is all BFE not
previously certified for installation on the Aircraft.

This Letter Agreement does not include developmental avionics. 
Developmental avionics are avionics that have not been previously
certified for installation on the Aircraft.

All other terms used herein and in the Agreement, and not defined
above, will have the same meaning as in the Agreement.

Buyer has requested and Boeing hereby agrees that Boeing will
purchase as SPE certain BFE identified by Buyer pursuant to
Change Requests.  Accordingly, Boeing and Buyer agree with
respect to such SPE as follows:

1.     Price.

       Advance Payments.  An estimated SPE price will be included
in the Aircraft Advance Payment Base Price for the purpose of
establishing the advance payments for each Aircraft.  The
estimated price of this SPE for each Aircraft, expressed in 1995
U.S. dollars, is listed below.

        Model               Estimated Price
                            for SPE (1995$)
       [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH
       THE SECURIITES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A
       REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT]




       Aircraft Price.  The Aircraft Price will be adjusted to
reflect (i) the actual costs charged Boeing by the SPE suppliers,
(ii) a handling fee of 10% of such costs and (iii) transportation
charges.  If all DBFE, except for developmental avionics, is
converted to SPE, Boeing will waive the handling fee for all SPE.

2.     Responsibilities.

       2.1    With respect to SPE, Buyer is responsible for:

              (i)    selecting the supplier and advising Boeing
as to the price negotiated between Buyer and supplier on or
before:



               Model         Model         Model         Model
              737-524       737-624       737-724       737-824
                                                                        
galleys       n/a           7/1/97        10/6/96       2/12/97
seats         n/a           2/7/97        9/3/96        9/3/96

                            

              (ii)   selecting a FAA certifiable part; and

              (iii)  providing to Boeing the SPE part
                     specification/Buyer requirements.

       2.2.   With respect to SPE, Boeing is responsible for:

              (i)    placing and managing the purchase order with
the supplier;

              (ii)   coordinating with the suppliers on technical
issues;

              (iii)  ensuring that the delivered SPE complies
with the part specification;

              (iv)   obtaining certification of the Aircraft with
the SPE installed; and

              (v)    obtaining for Buyer the supplier's standard
warranty for the SPE.  SPE is deemed to be BFE for purposes of
Exhibit B, the Product Assurance Document, of the Agreement.

3.     Supplier Selection For SPE Galleys and Seats.

       In addition to those responsibilities described above, for
SPE galleys and seats the following provisions apply with respect
to Buyer's selection of suppliers:

       Galley Requirements.  Buyer will provide Boeing not later
than August 7, 1996 the definitive galley configuration
requirements for the Model 737-724.  Buyer will provide Boeing
not later than November 27, 1996 the definitive galley
configuration requirements for the Model 737-824.  Buyer will
provide Boeing not later than May 1, 1997 the definitive galley
configuration requirements for the Model 737-624.

       Bidder's List.  Boeing has submitted to Buyer, for
information purposes, a bidder's list of existing suppliers of
seats and galleys.

       Request for Quotation (RFQ).  Boeing has issued its RFQ
inviting such potential bidders to submit bids for the galleys
and seats by July 15, 1996 for the Model 737-724 and -824
Aircraft.  Boeing will advise such date for the Model 737-624
Aircraft.

       Recommended Bidders.  Boeing has submitted to Buyer a list
of recommended bidders from which to choose a supplier for the
galleys and seats.  The recommendation is based on an evaluation
of the bids submitted using price, weight, warranty and schedule
as the criteria.

       Supplier Selection.  If Buyer selects a seat or galley
supplier that is not on the Boeing recommended list, such seat or
galley will become BFE and the provisions of Exhibit E, Buyer
Furnished Equipment Provisions Document, of the Agreement will
apply.

4.     Changes.

       After this Letter Agreement is signed, changes to SPE may
only be made by and between Boeing and the suppliers.  Buyer's
contacts with SPE suppliers relating to design (including
selection of materials and colors), weights, prices (except for
price negotiation prior to the supplier selection date) or
schedules are for informational purposes only.  If Buyer wants
changes made to any of the above, requests must be made directly
to Boeing for negotiating with the supplier.

5.     Proprietary Rights.

       Boeing's obligation to purchase SPE will not impose upon
Boeing any obligation to compensate Buyer or any supplier for any
proprietary rights Buyer may have in the design of the SPE.

6.     Remedies.

       If Buyer does not comply with the obligations above,
Boeing may:

       (i)    delay delivery of the Aircraft for the period of
non-compliance;

       (ii)   deliver the Aircraft without installing the SPE;

       (iii)  substitute a comparable part and invoice Buyer for
the cost; and/or

       (iv)   increase the Aircraft Price by the amount of
Boeing's additional costs attributable to such noncompliance.

7.     Buyer Participation in Price Negotiations for SPE. 
Subject to the following conditions, Boeing agrees that Buyer may
negotiate the price with vendors for certain items of BFE which
have been changed to SPE pursuant to this Letter Agreement.

       a.  Number of Items.  Boeing and Buyer have mutually
agreed on a list of specific equipment (the SPE Item) for which
Buyer shall negotiate directly with the vendors to establish the
price for each SPE Item.  The SPE Item list includes seats,
galleys, and interior furnishings.  Buyer shall provide the price
of the SPE Item when Buyer notifies Boeing of the SPE Item
vendor.

       b.  Required Dates.  Boeing's agreement to permit Buyer to
negotiate prices with vendors for SPE Items is subject to Buyer's
agreement to meet all of Boeing's required dates with respect to
each SPE Item.

       c.  Right to Approve Selected Vendors.  Boeing shall
retain the right to reasonably approve the list of vendors for
each SPE Item.

8.     Buyer's Indemnification of Boeing.

       Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless Boeing from and
against all claims and liabilities, including costs and expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incident thereto or incident to
successfully establishing the right to indemnification, for
injury to or death of any person or persons, including employees
of Buyer but not employees of Boeing, or for loss of or damage to
any property, including Aircraft, arising out of or in any way
connected with any nonconformance or defect in any SPE and
whether or not arising in tort or occasioned in whole or in part
by the negligence of Boeing, whether active, passive or imputed. 
This indemnity will not apply with respect to any nonconformance
or defect caused solely by Boeing's installation of the SPE.

Very truly yours,

THE BOEING COMPANY
