@abc7chicago: United Airlines and JetBlue Airways announced an agreement Thursday morning to share frequent flier benefits and sell tickets on each other's websites. If approved by regulators, the deal, called "Blue Sky," would allow United's MileagePlus members and JetBlue's TrueBlue members to earn and redeem miles on "most" flights operated by the other airline, according to a statement from the carriers. Frequent flyer benefits, including priority boarding, free baggage and preferred seats will be offered when passengers travel on the other airline's aircraft. More details will be announced later this year, the statement notes.

The government keeps letting these companies merge and we pay with higher prices, nickel and dime us by charging us extra for picking a window seat.

This is going to create over booking. Get ready for all of the problems especially when booking 3rd party

How come American and jet blue wasnt approved after they were already selling seats on each other airline so they had to break up but now united and jet blue are doing the same, it doesnt make any sense
