JetBlue and United Airlines Partnership
JetBlue and United Airlines kicked off their Blue Sky collaboration, offering loyalty members of both airlines the option to earn and redeem points or miles across each other’s networks.
As of today, TrueBlue members can earn points and redeem them for flights across United’s global network, including United Express. MileagePlus members can also earn and redeem miles on most flights across JetBlue’s network.
When searching for flights with points or miles on JetBlue or United’s websites and mobile apps, customers will now see flight options across both airlines’ networks.
To earn miles, points and tiles, TrueBlue members can enter their loyalty number when booking United-operated flights on United.com. United MileagePlus members can enter theirs when booking JetBlue-operated flights on JetBlue.com.
To redeem points or miles, members can continue booking award travel directly through their respective airline’s website, selecting the option to search with points or miles.
“With reciprocal earning and redemption now available, Blue Sky is officially taking flight,” the airlines said in a joint statement. “We’re excited to give our loyalty members the ability to use the program of their choice when traveling across our complementary networks.”
The airline say that this is just the first step in their collaboration.
- Revenue Booking coming in the first quarter of 2026 – including the ability to book itineraries on either airline using cash or miles/points.
- Reciprocal perks and benefits coming in early 2026 – such as priority boarding, preferred and extra legroom seating, and same-day standby and flight changes.
- United’s travel extras, MileagePlus Travel, to transition to Paisly, LLC coming in early 2026 – United’s MileagePlus Travel with expanded options for hotels, rental cars, cruises, packages and travel insurance will be powered by JetBlue’s wholly owned travel product company, Paisly.
