Blade, an urban mobility company that offers helicopter transfers in New York, will launch a semi-private jet service between New York and South Florida. Called BladeOne, the service will feature flights from Westchester County Airport in New York to Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport and President Donald J. Trump International Airport (formerly known as Palm Beach International Airport) in West Palm Beach. The service is seasonal and will run from Nov. 19 to May 2, 2027.
The flights will be operated under Blade’s brand by Aero, a Los Angeles-based private jet airline that uses smaller jets and serves private terminals rather than the public ones used by standard commercial carriers.
Onboard, the flights will offer “chef-curated” dining, caviar service, a full bar, high-speed Starlink WiFi, iPad Pros preloaded with first-run movies and “our legendary Blade Dopp Kits waiting at your seat.”
Aero will use E135 aircraft with eight rows of 1-1 seating. Blade will enable “seamless” booking for helicopter transfers between Manhattan and the airport in Westchester for customers departing or arriving on a South Florida flight.
