NEW YORK—American Airlines and JetBlue Airways will end their partnership in the Northeast next week, after a judge ruled that the deal violates antitrust law.

JetBlue said Friday that it will end codesharing—the practice of selling seats on each other’s flights—and reciprocal frequent-flyer benefits on July 21.
