Do you roam around forever right after you get the Airship?

FFIII, has about 4 different airships I believe. You get one right away, but you lose it right away too.

THE JACKEL

Everyone does.

I usually fly around the world doing nothing.

Getting airship access in FFXI is definetly fun.

Yeah, I think it's pretty creative how they decided not to have a world map in FFX. It was neat the way they totally changed the formula for navigating an FF world.

I hear that in FF3j, you get like 4 different airships. I can't wait!

I think the coolest airship related scene is in FF6, when the WoR theme begins to play as Daryl's airsip comes out of the ocean. That's so well done, that moment.

And of course, I flew all over the world exploring. I even got eaten by this guy called a "Zone Eater", and met a rater interesting guy.

It's alot more fun when you actually get an Airship later on in the game, like in FFVII, VIII or IX rather than in the first couple of hours like the earlier Final Fantasy's.

Which earlier FFs were you playing? You get a hovercraft fairly early in FF4, but you have to ditch it off at the foot of a mountain after about an hour of using it. And then I don't think you get an airship until after fighting Kainazzo, the second fiend. Then you get like 2 more after that. And one is a whale. That flies to the moon.

In FF1 you could get it right after you beat the first fiend, Lich. But the order that OFFICIAL NINTENDO POWER STRATEGY GUIDE (from when Nintendo Power was still cool) says to fight Kary first, and then head to the Ice Cave to get the stupid rock to make it fly.

And in 6, you get one airship at a time, unilke 4. But it gets busted up, quite nicely. You get another cooler one later. From a dead chick. Who, for some reason, was given a huge tomb with cryptic messages. And if you read the epitaph, a guy will attack you. A pretty easy guy.

Flammie (from SoM) isn't an airship, but he certainly does fly around like one. I always go buy the best armor money can buy as soon as I get the Flammie Drum.
