In the end, we get flights full of F.U. Mosaics (fake United) and the ability to book B6 flights on united.com, in case I'm bored and want an online change of scenery. For this, I have to listen to Scott Kirby dish out painfully disingenuous praise for the next four years.

God, please wake me from this nightmare.
Right now, this agreement covers just United. What isn’t clear is how it could impact *A members with tickets sold on UA stock. I think there are potentially great benefits for jetBlue, particularly if it can figure out a way to partner with Lufthansa and the other *A members.
