Blue Bikes directly supports the mission of Blue Cross
and Blue Shield of Louisiana to improve the health of Louisianans and its
investment in New Orleanians' wellness and healthy lives. In the progression of
encouraging healthy lifestyles, Blue Bikes extended its #RidingTowardImmunity
promotion, starting on Twelfth Night!
New Orleanians can use the promo code: BoostUpNola for
two free 30-minute rides to and from their COVID-19 vaccine and booster
appointments! To have two weeks for immunity before Mardi Gras Day (3/1), the
promotion lasts until Tuesday, February 15.
Blue Bikes is an inexpensive bike share program
sponsored by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana with a partnership between
the City of New Orleans and Drop. Blue Bikes is distinctively designed for New
Orleanians to have the opportunity for more public transits. Bringing bike
share to New Orleans expands transportation for residents and visitors who need
it at a low cost. Growing public transit in New Orleans is essential for
building up the city.
According to a press release from Blue Bikes, here's
how you can use your free ride to a COVID-19 vaccine or booster appointment:
1. Download the Blue Bikes NOLA app, available in the
App Store and Google Play.
2. To redeem your promo code and start your free ride,
open your Blue Bikes NOLA app and tap on your name in the upper-left corner.
This will pull up a sidebar of account options. Tap on "promo codes," which
will take you to the code redemption screen.
3. Enter the promo code BoostUpNola in the field
provided and tap "submit." This will give you two free, 30-minute rides that
you can use to travel to and from your COVID-19 vaccine or booster appointment.
Together, we will use these factors to help benefit a
safer community. So show Blue Bikes how you help the community by using the
code and posting pictures of your ride to vaccine appointments on your social
media, tagging Blue Bikes (@BlueBikesNOLA) and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of
Louisiana (@BCBSLA) using the hashtag #RidingTowardImmunity.
