The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) has renewed its partnership with Blade Urban Air Mobility, now a division of Joby Aviation, to provide scheduled by-the-seat flights during the 2025 NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE) in Las Vegas, running from 14–16 October.

Building on previous years of sold-out success, Blade will connect the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) with the NBAA-BACE Aircraft Connection at Henderson Executive Airport (HND), offering seven-passenger flights that allow attendees to experience the benefits of urban air mobility.

“We are pleased to once again partner with Blade to provide fast and convenient flights at NBAA-BACE,” says NBAA president and CEO Ed Bolen. “Blade pioneered the urban, by-the-seat vertical transportation model, which will be an essential component of the future of advanced air mobility.”

Blade CEO Rob Wiesenthal says: “Our service between the Las Vegas Convention Center and Henderson Airport highlights the value of vertical transportation by providing attendees with a fast, reliable alternative to ground congestion. NBAA attendees will not only enjoy Blade’s urban air mobility services today using conventional rotorcraft but will also see the quiet and emission-free future with Joby’s static display of its next-generation aircraft.”

Joby representatives will be available at the Blade check-in area to discuss future plans for introducing electric air taxis into Blade’s network. Tickets start at $195 for NBAA members and $245 for non-members.
