Europe has emerged as the largest passenger market for Blade Air Mobility following its acquisitions on the continent of Monacair SAM and Heli Securite in 2022, according to Melissa Tomkiel, the company’s president. 

Without revealing exact figures for the European market, Tomkiel did say that the majority of Blade’s more than 125,000 passengers annually worldwide are transported in the Alps during the ski season, with service in the region around Geneva and Courcheval, and in the south of France and Monaco, the latter being prime destinations in the spring and summer. At any given time, Blade has access to between 25 and 30 helicopters in Europe, Tomkiel said, the majority of them turbine singles, including the Airbus H130 series. Twins are used more frequently during the winter ski season.
