Additionally, Customers Can Now Book Travel on Select American / JetBlue itineraries Via AA.com
The Commercial Agreement has Also Been Expanded so Customers Can Now Fly to and from 26 JetBlue Domestic Markets and 15 American International Markets


Press Release Source: American Airlines On Wednesday November 17, 2010, 12:30 pm
FORT WORTH, Texas, Nov. 17, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- American Airlines and JetBlue Airways announced today the launch of a reciprocal frequent flyer agreement, effective Nov. 18, which allows members of the American Airlines AAdvantage® program and JetBlue's TrueBlue® customer loyalty program to earn AAdvantage miles or TrueBlue points, respectively, in select markets.
In addition, the commercial agreement announced in March 2010 has been expanded to include one new American Airlines international market and nine new JetBlue domestic markets. Customers will now be able to easily connect on flights to a total of 15 of American's international destinations departing from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Boston Logan Airport (BOS), including Barcelona, Spain (BCN); Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (GIG); and Tokyo, Japan; and 26 JetBlue domestic markets, including Portland, Maine; Rochester, N.Y.; or Richmond, Va.

  • Baltimore (BWI)
  • Charlotte, N.C. (CLT)
  • Newark, N.J. (EWR) - Service starts in May 2011
  • Orlando, Fla. (MCO)
  • Pittsburgh (PIT)
  • Raleigh-Durham, N.C. (RDU)

*The nine new JetBlue domestic markets will be available on AA.com after Dec. 10.
New American Airlines market:

  • Budapest, Hungary (BUD) - Service starts in April 2011

Also, American and JetBlue customers are now able to book American and JetBlue connecting itineraries on AA.com, providing customers with a new option for booking convenient, interline service in the select markets connecting at JFK and Boston Logan. In addition, American and JetBlue continue to explore opportunities to expand commercial cooperation where it makes sense to both airlines.

"The opportunity for AAdvantage members to earn AAdvantage miles on select JetBlue flights and our expanded ability to connect customers between our airlines provides more choice, more value, and more flexibility," said Maya Leibman, President – AAdvantage Program. "This is the latest step in our network strategy which is designed to provide the best connections between American's global network and the networks of other quality airlines."

"We're excited that TrueBlue members will now have another option for earning points when they fly American Airlines," said Dave Canty, Director of Loyalty Marketing at JetBlue. "Our completely redesigned TrueBlue program, which just celebrated its first anniversary last week, has made true on its promise of giving travelers more value and flexibility, and now with this new relationship, it's delivering them even more exciting destination options."

In addition to AA.com, customers continue to be able to book these combined itineraries through global distribution services (GDS), including travel agencies, most major North American online travel agency websites, or by calling American Airlines Reservations at 800-433-7300.
Below is the list of markets where customers can earn AAdvantage miles or TrueBlue points and in which cooperative, interline service is available, including seamless check-in and baggage drop services for customers connecting between American and JetBlue.

No wonder AMR wants to dump eagle. My bet, a purchase will soon follow.

APA wanted Eagle out of the picture and now they are getting their wish. jetBlue will now be AMRs Domestic carrier of choice.
 
Hey GL,

It's called "friends with benefits..." At least that's what the kids say nowadays... Wish that was the case when I was a kid.
