Blade Air Mobility, Inc. announced its partnership with Ocean Casino Resort (“Ocean”) to fly Ocean’s guests by helicopter directly between Manhattan and Ocean’s dedicated rooftop helipad in Atlantic City all summer long.
Guests can book seats for $695 each way, beginning on Saturday, May 25, and every Saturday and Sunday in July and August through Labor Day Weekend.
“This is a natural extension for Blade to complement its leisure and airport routes in the Northeast,” said Roisin Branch, Chief Marketing Officer of BLADE. “We have seen a meaningful increase in charter requests from Manhattan to Atlantic City and are excited to make the flights accessible to a broader audience over the summer.”
Passengers will enjoy a seamless 40-minute flight from Blade Lounge West in Manhattan to Ocean’s newly constructed helipad located on the roof of Ocean, where an Ocean team member will meet them upon arrival, with dedicated concierge service during their stay and a complimentary suite upgrade.
Moët & Chandon is Ocean’s official champagne partner for this launch, and every passenger who books a flight will receive a complimentary bottle of Moët Imperial champagne.
“We are pleased to be partnering with Blade to launch Ocean’s by-the-seat helicopter service throughout the summer,” said Bill Callahan, General Manager for Ocean. “Our customers have enjoyed privately chartered trips by Blade since we built our helipad last year, however, adding a best-in-class travel experience that allows for individual seat purchases provides yet another fantastic amenity to our award-winning beachfront resort.”
