BLADE—which charters helicopters to New York airports, The Hamptons and Nantucket, along with private jets to Miami—is branching out to Atlantic City with a high-flying new casino collaboration.
The chopper service now offers nonstop service from its Manhattan helipad to the rooftop of AC’s Ocean Casino Resort. Guests can now book seats on a six-passenger helicopter, with flights scheduled every Saturday in July and August, wrapping up on Labor Day Weekend.
Guests can enjoy the quick 40-minute trip from the retro-chic BLADE Lounge West terminal on West 30th Street to Ocean’s new helipad on the roof of its customer garage, with dedicated concierge service and a complimentary suite upgrade.
Moët & Chandon is Ocean’s official champagne partner for the collab. Every passenger who books a flight will receive an exclusive champagne tumbler and every BLADE x Ocean hotel package will include a cold bottle of Moët Imperial.
“Our customers have enjoyed privately chartered trips since we built our helipad last year,” said Bill Callahan, General Manager for Ocean Casino Resort, in a statement plugging the partnership. “However, adding a scheduled best-in-class travel experience provides yet another fantastic amenity to our beachfront resort.”
Roisin Branch, CMO of BLADE, added: “We have seen a meaningful increase in charter requests from Manhattan to Atlantic City recently and we are excited to make the flights more accessible to a broader audience over the summer.”
Flights, packages and complimentary suite upgrades can be booked through the BLADE to Atlantic City link here.
