United and JetBlue Expand Codeshare and Through-Ticket Booking Options
United Airlines and JetBlue have expanded cross-airline booking options under their Blue Sky partnership. Travellers can now book eligible itineraries across both networks through either carrier’s sales channels.
The update allows customers to access more combined flight options in one search. Passengers can book using cash, points, or miles across both airlines.
For travel agencies, the development strengthens cross-airline booking flexibility. Agents can now secure itineraries across both carriers more efficiently for clients.
Greater Connectivity Across Both Networks
The partnership increases connectivity across the United and JetBlue networks. United customers gain improved access to JetBlue’s routes across the Americas and Europe.
JetBlue customers benefit from United’s extensive domestic and international reach. The agreement supports reciprocal loyalty earning and redemption introduced last year.
Airline leaders described the move as a major milestone in their collaboration. They emphasised greater choice, flexibility, and earning opportunities for frequent flyers.
Through-Ticketing and Future Integration
The airlines plan to introduce single-ticket itineraries with connecting United and JetBlue flights. This enhancement will allow true through-ticketing across both carriers.
Through tickets will streamline baggage transfers and protect connections under one booking. This feature will further simplify multi-airline itineraries for long-haul and domestic travellers.
The Blue Sky partnership also includes reciprocal loyalty benefits and United’s expansion at New York JFK. For travel advisors, the expanded cooperation creates stronger cross-airline packaging opportunities.
Agencies can now build more competitive itineraries using coordinated schedules, loyalty integration, and future codeshare alignment. As integration deepens, cross-network booking between United and JetBlue will offer clients broader route access with improved flexibility and earning potential.
