Rain stopped Blade’s inaugural helicopter flights to the Hamptons on Thursday — but it didn’t stop New York Times contributor Alex Kuczynski from using the recently introduced app to get out East.

Kuczynski is seen here about to get into a Maserati — which Blade uses to whisk its customers out of the city when Mother Nature makes flying impossible.

Blade offers passengers — regardless of the weather — a glass of rosé and a copy of The Post. Kuczynski, the author of “Beauty Junkies” and the wife of investor Charles Stevenson, obviously enjoys a lively read.
