Here’s What It’s Like to Fly to The Hamptons By Helicopter & Spend The Entire Day By the Pool

A gorgeous and hot weekend in the city just calls for a relaxing getaway in the Hamptons. And so we did it! We booked a flight with BLADE to Southampton for a day trip we will never forget.

BLADE teamed up with Velocity to offer an exclusive day trip to the Hamptons including ground transportation, an amazing five-star lunch, VIP access to a pool with a daybed and side drinks. Combine all that with Summer heat and you got yourself a day you will never forget.

BLADE Lounge West

We drove up to 12th Ave and West 30th Street, to the BLADE Lounge where we first enjoyed complimentary drinks and  meticulously crafted atmosphere that got us really excited about the trip.

The flight

From the the BLADE Lounge West we accessed the helipad and boarded for a flight with breathtaking views of New York City. The flight was as enjoyable as you can imagine, with complimentary refreshments and amazing  scenery. And the best part: we skipped all the traffic!

Blade In Southampton

After the arrival to Southampton, the ground transportation was already waiting to take us to a light lunch at Oreya Restaurant at the Capri Hotel, courtesy of Velocity. Following the delicious lunch, we sunbathed at the Oreya pool on a lush daybed in a reserved area for BLADE clients accompanied with side drink service. It was the perfect way to spend the hot summer day.
