Continental Airlines said it would add a daily non-stop flight between Norfolk and Cleveland starting in June. The new flight is part of the Houston-based airlines expansion of its hub at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. The service starts June 6 at Norfolk International Airport and will offer connections to 61 destinations. The new flight is Continental's first expansion in Norfolk since its low-priced Peanuts fares campaign fizzled and it withdrew about two-thirds of its 24 daily flights. Continental is the nation's fifth largest airline. (Staff) by CNB
