Joby Aviation, Inc. and Uber Technologies, Inc. plan to bring Blade’s air mobility services to the Uber app as early as next year. The announcement follows Joby’s August 2025 acquisition of Blade’s passenger business.
Blade transported more than 50,000 passengers in 2024 across routes in the New York metropolitan area and Southern Europe, including destinations such as Newark Liberty International Airport, John F. Kennedy International Airport, Manhattan, and the Hamptons. Once integration is complete, passengers will be able to book Blade flights directly through the Uber app, providing new air travel options in high-demand markets.
“We’re excited to introduce Uber customers to the magic of seamless urban air travel,” said JoeBen Bevirt, founder and CEO of Joby. “Integrating Blade into the Uber app is the natural next step in our global partnership with Uber and will lay the foundation for the introduction of our quiet, zero-emissions aircraft in the years ahead. Together with Uber’s global platform and Blade’s proven network, we’re setting the stage for a new era of air travel worldwide.”
Joby and Uber have collaborated since 2019, when they began working to advance urban air mobility. In 2021, Joby acquired Uber’s Elevate division, which contributed to early development in the sector. Joby intends to leverage Blade’s infrastructure and experience to accelerate the rollout of its electric air taxi services worldwide.
