Exhibit 10.8

AMENDED AND RESTATED ALLIANCE AGREEMENT

This Amended and Restated Alliance Agreement (the “Alliance Agreement” and together with the Exhibits hereto, the “Agreement”) is made this 30th day of December, 1999, by and between CONTINENTAL AIRLINES, INC. (“Continental”), a Delaware corporation, with its principal office at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇.▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, and GULFSTREAM INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES, INC. (“Gulfstream”), a Florida corporation, with its principal office at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.

Recitals

Continental and Gulfstream are each certificated air carriers providing air transportation services with respect to both passengers and cargo in their respective areas of operation.

Continental and Gulfstream are each party to an Alliance Agreement dated January 9, 1997 (the “Original Alliance Agreement”).

Contemporaneous with the date hereof, Continental has made a substantial equity investment in Gulfstream (the “Equity Investment”).

Continental and Gulfstream desire to increase the flow of air passenger traffic on aircraft operated by both carriers and increase the quantity and quality of air service available to the traveling public by entering into a cooperative relationship that will include the code sharing of flights, through check-in, special prorate arrangements for passengers, frequent flyer program participation, joint sales and marketing programs and other mutually agreed to agreements.

In connection with the Equity Investment, Continental and Gulfstream desire to amend and restate the Original Alliance Agreement as provided for in this Alliance Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises herein contained, Continental and Gulfstream agree as follows:

1. Shared Code Segments. To the extent permitted by applicable laws, Continental will place its code on flights operated by Gulfstream between the locations indicated on Exhibit A hereto (the “Shared Code Segments”). To the extent permitted by applicable law, the carriers will explore the possibility of code sharing on additional mutually agreed to segments. Gulfstream may utilize its designator code for local traffic on the Shared Code Segments, but shall have no right to place its designator code on flights operated by Continental. Except as expressly set forth herein, no carrier shall have an obligation to extend Shared Code Segments to other routes or to maintain operations of its aircraft on any routes and no such obligation can be created by any oral statements or representations or course of dealing by a carrier, but only by an express written agreement. Continental will place its “CO*” designator code on the flights operated as Shared Code Segments promptly upon the reasonable determination by Continental that the product offered by Gulfstream on such flight is substantially comparable to that offered by Continental. The carriers shall meet together at least every six months that this Agreement is

in effect to discuss the appropriateness of expanding or contracting the list of city pairs on Exhibit A.

2. Schedules. The carriers will cooperate with each other to develop coordinated schedules to ensure maximum connecting opportunities for both carriers. Once a schedule has been established, a carrier may only change the schedule for its aircraft upon 60 days’ prior written notice to the other carrier (or notice as far in advance as is practicable, if 60 days is not practicable). If a schedule change by either carrier will have a detrimental effect on the connecting opportunities relating to Shared Code Segments, the carrier making the change will discuss the change with the other carrier prior to implementing the change.

3. Pricing and Capacity Control of Shared Code Segments.

(a) Pricing. Each carrier will file the tariffs and fares for flights operated on Shared Code Segments that utilize its designator code (CO or CO* in the case of Continental and 3M in the case of Gulfstream). Continental will establish and set, to the exclusion of Gulfstream, the fares for flights operated solely by it and flights between locations served by connecting flight operations whereby at least one segment is operated by Gulfstream as a Shared Code Segment and at least one segment is operated by Continental (“Through Flight”). Gulfstream will establish and set, to the exclusion of Continental, the fares for flights operated solely by it. To the extent that no fare has been filed for a Through Flight, the fare applicable to such flight shall equal the sum of the local fares.

(b) Capacity Control. Except to the extent necessary to prevent unauthorized over booking. Gulfstream will make available for sale as a Shared Code Segment all of the available seats on Shared Code Segments operated by it; provided, however, that as long as Gulfstream is a party to its current agreement with United Airlines, Inc.(“United”), whereby United’s two letter designator code is placed on aircraft operated by Gulfstream, Gulfstream may withhold from inventory available to Continental up to four seats on one of the daily flights operated by Gulfstream in each of the following city pairs: MIA-MCO, MIA-TPA, MIA-EYW, MIA-NAS, TPA-EYW, PBI-TPA, MCO-EYW, FLL-NAS, SJU-STT, SJU-STX, SJU-SXM AND SJU-SKB. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3(b), Gulfstream will use its reasonable efforts to make inventory available to satisfy the demand for passenger traffic connecting from Continental flights.

4. Revenue Allocation. The revenue from Through Flights shall be allocated in accordance with the Revenue Settlement Agreement in effect between the carriers. The revenue to be allocated will be based on the ticketed fare, less any discount resulting from acceptance of mutually agreed to coupons or certificates. Excess baggage charges and other similar charges will be prorated on a segment basis.

5. Revenue Settlement.

(a) Revenue Advances to Gulfstream

(i) Timing. On a weekly basis, Continental will advance funds to Gulfstream for estimated amounts of revenue (the “Advance Payment”). The Advance Payment will be sent to Gulfstream every Thursday (exceptions being made for holidays) via wire transfer, and will cover the seven days ending on and including the previous Sunday.

(ii) Calculation. The Advance Payment will be calculated accordingly to the following formula:

[*]
equals: Advance Payment

Where,

[*]

(iii) Costs for reporting requirements. Gulfstream shall be responsible for the cost of maintaining and, as necessary, upgrading FSIR in order to comply with the reporting requirements set forth above.

(iv) Adjustments to Advance Payment methodology. The carriers will review the methodology for determining the amount of the advance payment upon the request of either carrier, and to the extent that the amount of the advance needs to be adjusted prospectively to more accurate reflect the risks of each carrier, the methodology will be adjusted accordingly.

(b) Monthly Settlement. At the end of each month, the Carriers will submit invoices to the other via the Airline Clearing House (ACH) as follows:

(i) Continental will ▇▇▇▇ Gulfstream the sum of all Advance Payments made to Gulfstream with respect to such month (including an allocation of any weekly advance that covers the end of one month and the beginning of the next month).

(ii) Continental will ▇▇▇▇ Gulfstream, as and when reasonably quantified, all credit card discount and processing fees and charges, credit card chargebacks, CRS booking fees, reservations and sales accounting charges and other deductions permitted in accordance with this Agreement with respect to revenue on CO* Flights.

(iii) Gulfstream will ▇▇▇▇ Continental the actual revenue it earned with respect to tickets on Continental ticket stock as determined in accordance with Section 4 hereto, not including taxes, passenger facility charges, commissions and other appropriate deductions from the fare, as evidenced by Continental coupons lifted by Gulfstream on CO* Flights during the month.

The net amount due to Continental or Gulfstream will be settled through normal ACH procedures. Subject to Gulfstream’s obligation to reimburse Continental for

such payments, Continental will remit to the appropriate authority all taxes, passenger facility charges and other fees with respect to coupons for CO* flights issued on Continental ticket stock, and will remit, as appropriate (or allow the offset of), all commissions with respect to such coupons.

(c) Offset/Adjustment to Advance Payments. Continental reserves the right to adjust and/or offset the amount of any Advance Payments to be made to Gulfstream pursuant to this Section 5 based on amounts due and payable by Gulfstream to Continental pursuant to this Agreement or with respect to other alliance related obligations.

(d) Consent to Sampling. Gulfstream hereby consents to the use of sampling techniques by Continental to determine settlement amounts in accordance with Airline Clearing House Manual Section D. If Gulfstream is not satisfied with the results of the sampling results, Gulfstream may request Continental to review the sampling techniques.

6. Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date first written above and shall, unless earlier terminated as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, continue thereafter until either carrier gives the other carrier at least three years’ written notice of termination; provided, however, that such notice may not be given until on or after the date that is ten (10) years after the date hereof.

7. Sales and Marketing Programs. To the extent permitted by law, the parties will work to develop and implement mutually agreeable joint sales and marketing programs to help promote the alliance relationship and increase revenues from same. Details of joint program development, charges for inclusion therein and the individual components thereof will be negotiated and mutually agreed between the carriers. The parties will conduct semiannual joint sales and marketing meetings to discuss possible sales and marketing programs and strategies.

8. Other Agreements. In furtherance of the alliance relationship, the carriers have entered or will enter into agreements concerning the following subject matters:

			Subject Matter

	A.		Employee Interline

	B.		Frequent Flyer Program Participation

	C.		Ground Handling

	D.		Fuel

9. [Deleted by Amendment dated 12/26/02.]

10. Reservations and Ticket Handling. Continental shall operate and maintain a reservations system to permit potential passengers to book reservations on Shared Code Segments. Gulfstream shall be permitted to utilize Continental’s ticket stock and other travel documents, provided that Gulfstream complies with the procedures set forth in Exhibit B hereto. As compensation for such reservation services and the sales accounting function provided in connection with Gulfstream’s utilization of Continental’s ticket stock, Gulfstream shall pay to Continental an amount equal to $[*] per coupon (or electronic coupon equivalent) utilized on a flight operating as a Shared Code Segment, with such amount to be modified from time to time,

upon satisfactory evidence by Continental, so that such amount is not less than Continental’s fully allocated cost of providing such services.

12. Terms and Conditions. Incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof are the “General Terms and Conditions” set forth in Exhibit C hereto.

8. Flight Display.

(a) All Shared Code Segments will be included in the schedule, availability and fare displays of all computerized reservations systems in which Continental and Gulfstream participate, the Official Airline Guide (to the extent agreed upon) and Continental’s and Gulfstream’s internal reservation systems, under the shared code as well as the operator’s own code, to the extent possible. Continental and Gulfstream will take the appropriate measures necessary to ensure the display of the schedules of all Shared Code Segments in accordance with the preceding sentence.

(b) Continental and Gulfstream will disclose and identify the Shared Code Segments to the public as actually being a flight of and operated by the operating carrier in at least the following ways:

Nothing in this subsection shall require either carrier to adopt the practices or implement the services of the other carrier.

(b) The carriers will use existing IATA procedures when handling and settling claims made by customers in connection with Shared Code Segments.

10. Irregularity Handling.

(a) In the event of flight delays, cancellations or other schedule irregularities that affect Shared Code Segments, the operating carrier will inform the carrier whose designator is also used of all pertinent information concerning an irregularity for customer information purposes.

(b) The parties agree that they will cooperate in all available ways to accommodate passengers experiencing flight irregularities (including, but not limited to, schedule changes, flight cancellations, delayed flights, flight interruptions and delayed,

damaged, pilfered or lost baggage) and that neither will forbear from providing such assistance because the other may have been responsible for the flight irregularity. In the event of a flight irregularity, the carrier causing or experiencing the irregularity shall bear all related costs (including costs of the other carrier) associated with accommodating the passengers who have been affected by such flight irregularity. The carriers will review existing procedures for handling flight irregularities and accommodating interline passengers with respect thereto and handling over sales situations to determine their adequacy for the purposes of this Agreement and will make such mutually agreed to adjustments in existing procedures as they find necessary or appropriate to provide coordinated irregularity handling. In the absence of such agreement, the written policies and procedures of the carrier whose designator code is indicated on the ticket will be followed.

(c) The carriers will allocate a value to travel certificates used to accommodate passengers inconvenienced as a result of flight irregularities. Such allocation will take into account breakage and the cost of administering the travel certificate program.

11. Airport Operational Assistance. Each carrier intends to develop a seamless transfer for passengers connecting from a Continental to a Gulfstream flight segment (or vice versa). In connection therewith, Continental and Gulfstream will cooperate to coordinate and maintain their schedules to minimize the waiting time and to maximize convenience of passengers who are connecting from a Continental to an Gulfstream flight segment (or vice versa). Each carrier will provide the other with the airport operational assistance that is required to assure schedule compatibility for Through Flights where applicable.

12. Tariff Filing. Each carrier will file the tariffs and fares for flights operated on Shared Code Segments that utilize its designator code (CO or CO* in the case of Continental and 3M in the case of Gulfstream).

13. Transportation Taxes. Each carrier shall be responsible for collecting and paying any taxes or fees assessed by any governmental authority or airport on the transportation of passengers or property for transportation utilizing its travel documents. If a carrier other than the ticketing carrier is responsible for paying such taxes or fees, the carriers will develop a system whereby the carrier that collects the tax or fee will remit the same to the carrier that is obligated to pay the tax or fee or arrange for the carrier that collects the tax or fee to pay the same on behalf of the carrier responsible for paying the same.

14. Booking Fees. The carrier operating over any segment of a Shared Code Segment will be responsible for any booking fee relating to such segment charges by the vendor of a computer reservation system used to create a booking on that flight. If the booking fee relating to such segment is billed to the carrier whose designator code is also used for that flight, the operating carrier will reimburse the carrier whose designator code is also used for that flight.

15. Flight Coupon Handling.

(a) Continental Authorization. Continental hereby authorizes Gulfstream to handle Continental flight coupons specifying Continental through flight numbers under

this Agreement in the same way as if these coupons were specifying Gulfstream flights. Continental shall confirm this authorization immediately to third parties if Gulfstream so requires.

(b) Gulfstream Authorization. Gulfstream hereby authorizes Continental to handle Gulfstream flight coupons specifying Gulfstream through flight numbers under this Agreement in the same way as if these coupons were specifying Continental flights. Gulfstream shall confirm this authorization immediately to third parties if Continental so requires.

16. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Continental and Gulfstream each represent, warrant, and agree that performance of its respective obligations under this Agreement shall be conducted and all of its personnel shall at all times meet, be in full compliance with and have all required licenses under any and all applicable laws, statutes, orders, rules and regulations of any country or territory with jurisdiction over the Shared Code Segments, including without limitation, those laws, statutes, orders, rules and regulations promulgated by the United States of America. Each carrier shall be responsible, at its own cost, for obtaining any regulatory authorizations necessary to operate its flights or utilize its designator code on the Shared Code Segments; provided that, the other carrier shall render such assistance as is reasonably requested in order to obtain such regulatory authorizations.

17. Independent Parties.

(a) Independent Contractors. It is expressly recognized and agreed that each carrier, in its performance and otherwise under this Agreement, is and shall be engaged and acting as an independent contractor and in its own independent and separate business; that each carrier shall retain complete and exclusive control over its staff and operations and the conduct of its business; and that each carrier shall bear and pay all expenses, costs, risks and responsibilities incurred by it in connection with its obligations under this Agreement. Neither Continental nor Gulfstream nor any officer, employee, representative, or agent of Continental or Gulfstream shall in any manner, directly or indirectly, expressly or by implication, be deemed to be, or make any representation or take any action which may give rise to the existence of, any employment, agent, partnership, of other like relationship as between Continental and Gulfstream but each carrier’s relationship as respects the other carrier in connection with this Agreement is and shall remain that of an independent contractor.

(b) Status of Employees. The employees, agents and/or independent contractors of Gulfstream shall be employees, agents, and independent contractors of Gulfstream for all purposes, and under no circumstances shall be deemed to be employees, agents or independent contractors of Continental. The employees, agents and independent contractors of Continental shall be employees, agents and independent contractors of Continental for all purposes, and under no circumstances shall be deemed to be employees, agents or independent contractors of Gulfstream. In its performance under this Agreement, each carrier shall act as an independent contractor and not as an agent for the other. Continental shall have no supervisory power or control over any employees, agents or independent contractors employed by Gulfstream, and Gulfstream

shall have no supervisory power or control over any employees, agents and independent contractors employed by Continental.

(c) Liability For Employee Costs. Each carrier, with respect to its own employees (hired directly or through a third party), accepts full and exclusive liability for the payment of worker’s compensation and/or employer’s liability (including insurance premiums where required by law) and for the payment of all taxes, contributions or other payments for unemployment compensation, vacations, or old age benefits, pensions and all other benefits now or hereafter imposed upon employers with respect to its employees by any government or agency thereof or any other party (whether measured by the wages, salaries, compensation or other remuneration paid to such employees or otherwise) and each carrier further agrees to make such payments and to make and file all reports and returns, and to do everything necessary to comply with the laws imposing such taxes, contributions or other payments.

18. Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Indemnification.

RE:		Amendment Four to the Amended and Restated Alliance Agreement

Gentlemen:

As you are aware, CONTINENTAL AIRLINES, INC. (“Continental”) and GULFSTREAM INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES, INC. (“Gulfstream”) are each party to the Amended and Restated Alliance Agreement, dated December 30, 1999 (as amended by Amendment One and Amendment Two thereto, the “Alliance Agreement”). Continental and Gulfstream each desire to amend the Alliance Agreement as follows:

1. Continental continues to experience customer service issues related to Gulfstream’s codeshare agreement with United Airlines, Inc. (“United”) due to incompatible technology, and booking irregularities. Accordingly, Continental and Gulfstream agree to amend the Alliance Agreement, effective the date first written above, by adding a new Section 9 to the Alliance Agreement that reads:

[*]

2. Continental and Gulfstream agree to amend the Alliance Agreement, effective the date first written above, by adding a new Section 1. (a) to the Alliance Agreement that reads:

“Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Gulfstream shall obtain Continental’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, prior to increasing the flights on which Continental shall be obligated to place its designator code or changing or increasing the aircraft which Gulfstream has in service on flights on which Continental places its designator code. Continental shall be deemed to have accepted revisions to the restrictions set forth in this Section 1 (a) when it publishes schedules in SHARES with respect to such additional flights or aircraft.”

3. Continental and Gulfstream agree to amend the Alliance Agreement, effective the date first written above, by adding a new Section 13 to the Alliance Agreement that reads:

“At Continental’s option and at all times during the term of this Agreement, with respect to Gulfstream and GAIR or any affiliate or successor thereof, Gulfstream and GAIR agree to ensure that an individual designated from time to time by Continental shall be a member of the board of directors of Gulfstream or GAIR, or affiliate thereof, as the case

-15-

may be. In furtherance of such endeavors, at the time of any nomination, appointment or election of any board member of Gulfstream or GAIR, or affiliate thereof, when no Continental designee is a member of such board, shall nominate or appoint, as the case may be, an individual designated by Continental at such time and, in the event of a shareholders vote, shall recommend to shareholders such individual’s election to the board. In addition, at any time when no Continental designee is a member of its board and at Continental’s request, Gulfstream or GAIR, or affiliate, as the case may be, shall invite the individual designated by Continental at such time to attend all board meetings (including telephonic meetings) and review all actions taken without a meeting, and shall provide such individual, at the same time as provided to board members, all materials provided to board members in connection with such meetings or actions taken without a meeting.”

4. Continental and Gulfstream agree to amend the Alliance Agreement, effective the date first written above, by deleting the text of Subsection (C)(x) of Section 19 of Exhibit C of the Alliance Agreement and replacing it with the following text:

“By Continental or Gulfstream with or without cause upon one hundred eight (180) days’ prior written notice which notice may not be issued prior to November 3, 2011.”

5. Continental and Gulfstream agree to amend the Alliance Agreement, effective the date first written above, by adding a new Section 14 to the Alliance Agreement that reads:

“Gulfstream agrees to give any furloughed Continental pilot preferential interview status for any pilot openings that may occur at Gulfstream. Any furloughed Continental pilot hired by Gulfstream will not be required to resign from Continental as a condition for applying or being employed as a pilot of Gulfstream. Continental agrees to give Gulfstream pilots preferential interview status for any pilot opening that may occur at Continental, consistent with commitments concerning pilots of other carriers.”

6. Continental and Gulfstream agree to amend the Alliance Agreement, effective the date first written above, by adding a new Subsection D to Exhibit C Section 19(c)(vii) of the Alliance Agreement that reads:

“A Change of Control occurs to which Continental shall not have consented in writing in advance. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control” shall mean: (i) Gulfstream or GAIR or any other Person controlling Gulfstream or GAIR (a “Gulfstream Party”) consolidates with, or merges with or into, another Person or conveys, transfers, leases or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, or any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, a Gulfstream Party in any such event pursuant to a transaction in

which the voting securities of a Gulfstream Party are converted into or exchanged for cash or securities, except where the holders of voting securities of the Gulfstream Party immediately prior to such transaction own not less than a majority of the voting securities of the surviving or transferee corporation immediately after such transaction, in each case other than any such transaction between any Gulfstream Party on the one hand, and Continental and/or any of its Subsidiaries on the other; or (ii) any transaction as a result of which a Gulfstream Party and another air carrier (other than Continental and its successors and any Subsidiary thereof) are legally combined; or (iii) a transaction as a result of which a Gulfstream Party acquires, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the capital stock or voting power of an air carrier (provided that Continental’s consent shall not be unreasonably withheld in the case of an air carrier which, together with its affiliates, operates only aircraft certified for 30 passengers or less); or (iv) the direct or indirect acquisition by another air carrier (other than Continental and its successors and any Subsidiary thereof) or any Person directly or indirectly controlling another air carrier of beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the capital stock or voting power of a Gulfstream Party; or (v) the direct or indirect acquisition by any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) not described in clause (iv) above (and other than Continental and its successors and any Subsidiary thereof), of beneficial ownership of more than 25% of the capital stock or voting power of a Gulfstream Party; or (vi) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the airline assets of a Gulfstream Party on a consolidated basis directly or indirectly to another air carrier (other than Continental and its successors and any Subsidiary thereof) or its affiliate, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions; or (vii) the Incumbent Directors of a Gulfstream Party (meaning, in each case, members of the board of directors of such party of who (a) were members of such board of directors as of January 1, 2006 or (b) became a director subsequent to January 1, 2006, whose appointment to fill a vacancy or to fill a new position on such board of directors or whose nomination for election by the shareholders of such Gulfstream Party was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Directors) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the board of directors of such Gulfstream Party; or (viii) the execution by a Gulfstream Party of bona fide definitive agreements, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by which would result in a transaction described in the immediately preceding clauses.”
