Blade

Helicopter and seaplane shuttle brand running Manhattan to East Hampton flights each summer. Ownership changed in August 2025: Blade Air Mobility sold its passenger division to Joby Aviation and renamed itself Strata Critical Medical (ticker SRTA from BLDE). Joby's own site links to blade.com under Fly Blade. Airport status still varies with East Hampton Town rules. Google lists no Blade location on the East End; all three BLADE lounges it holds are in Manhattan.
