JetBlue and United Airlines have unveiled a “unique” collaboration called Blue Sky that may be a merger in all but name.

It allows MileagePlus customers to earn and use miles on most JetBlue flights, lets the airline sell flights on each other’s websites, and paves the way for United to return to JFK International Airport.

There’s no question the deal will benefit JetBlue and United. The real question is, will it be good for you?
