Third time's the charm. Red orb sunrise behind the Nubble Lighthouse that intercepted some clouds as it rose higher, making it look like it developed rings like Saturn for a moment. Also, note the little black dots on the sun - sunspots.

United and JetBlue are officially partners.
Initially the deal is all loyalty, and an interline agreement.
In 2027, the airlines will swap slot pairs/runway timings that see United gain 7 flights at JFK, and JetBlue 8 at Newark.
