The wait is over: Blade flights are now bookable using Bilt Cash

When Bilt underwent its 2.0 transformation earlier this year, it introduced Bilt Cash as one of the types of rewards you can earn if you have a Bilt credit card.One of the most anticipated ways to use Bilt Cash — at least, for those who live in or visit the New York City area — was for Blade helicopter transfers. These flights can whisk you between Manhattan and John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) or Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) — and beyond — in minutes rather than leaving you stuck sitting in traffic.However, as the months have ticked by, Blade has remained a "coming soon" redemption option for Bilt Cash. And since only $100 of Bilt Cash earned rolls over at the end of the year, some Bilt members have been anxiously waiting for more ways to use the currency before that fast-approaching deadline.Now, the wait is over: Blade flights are available to book directly in the Bilt app using Bilt Cash, Bilt Points or a combination of the two.Here's how the new redemption option works.Related: Bilt: Earn points on housing, card benefits and moreBILTHow to use Bilt Cash to book Blade flightsBilt members can redeem Bilt Cash for up to two Blade flights per calendar year...
