PART III – NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attached extra Sheets if Needed)

Blade Air Mobility, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021 (the “Quarterly Report”) by the prescribed due date for the reasons described below. As previously reported, the Company completed a business combination transaction with Experience Investment Corporation (“EIC”), a special purpose acquisition company on May 7, 2021. The Quarterly Report relates to the financial results of EIC prior to the business combination transaction. As previously disclosed, in light of the Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”) (the “Staff Statement”) issued by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2021, EIC, in consultation with its audit committee, concluded that its previously issued financial statements, including its balance sheet as of September 17, 2019 (date of IPO), its quarterly unaudited financial statements for the periods ended September 30, 2019, March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, and its audited financial statements for the period from May 24, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, for the period from May 24, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2020 should be restated because of a misapplication in the guidance around accounting for certain of our outstanding warrants to purchase common stock.

On May 7, 2021, EIC filed an amendment to its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 to restate its financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 to give effect to the change in accounting for the warrants.

The Company is working diligently to complete the Quarterly Report as soon as possible; however, given the scope of the process for restating its previously filed financial statements, the Company is unable to complete and file the Quarterly Report by the prescribed due date without unreasonable effort and expense. The Company expects to file its Quarterly Report within five calendar days of May 17, 2021.

Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s).

x Yes ¨ No

(3)

Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

x Yes ¨ No

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The Company anticipates a significant reduction in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, as restated, primarily due to the change in the fair value of warrants (from to $5.1 million income to $0.9 million expense). The Company estimates that net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $1.1 million, as compared to a net income of $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
