December 6, 2011 - Continental and ExpressJet pilots continue a longstanding holiday tradition, sharing their time, money, and hearts to bring cheer and toys to hospitalized children and their families. During the past 17 years, many Continental and ExpressJet pilots have volunteered their time for Pilots for Kids, making visits in cities across the country. Untold numbers have generously donated money to fund the purchase of plush toys that are given to these children during the visits. In addition to today’s event in Houston, additional visits are currently planned for Cleveland, Ohio, and Bridgeport, Conn.
