JetBlue Airways CEO Joanna Geraghty said Monday that the company’s new partnership with United Airlines will not result in a merger between the two carriers.
The airlines last week announced a collaboration allowing travellers to book flights on both carriers’ websites and interchangeably earn and redeem points through their frequent flyer programs.
“We’ve spent a lot of time with the Department of Justice over the last five years, and we’re playing it safe,” Geraghty said, emphasizing regulatory caution.
