| '''Airships''' are aerial transportation vehicles that appear throughout the ''[[Final Fantasy (series)|Final Fantasy]]'' series, starting with the first game, ''[[Final Fantasy]]''. In nearly every main series game, a character named [[Cid]] has his own airship. An airship usually becomes available for the [[party]] either halfway or near the end of their adventure, when they can access most of the [[world map]]. An airship is usually only capable of landing on grassy terrain. The player can look at a shadow underneath the airship to see where it can land. Airships range from having the basic appearance of a wooden ship with propellers to being technologically advanced. | |

| In ''Final Fantasy'', an airship is buried in the [[Ryukahn Desert]], and the [[Warriors of Light]] can unearth it with the [[Levistone]]. The airship is the last transportation vehicle found by the Warriors of Light, and is necessary for them to reach northern areas. In remakes, it is mentioned that the airship was created by a [[Lufenian]] named [[List of implied characters#Cid (Final Fantasy)|Cid]], but was buried in the Ryukahn Desert when [[Tiamat]] destroyed their civilization 400 years prior to the game's events. In the original [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] version, the airship's name is formatted in uppercase, '''AIRSHIP'''. | | In ''Final Fantasy'', an airship is buried within the [[Ryukahn Desert]], and the [[Warriors of Light]] can unearth it by using the [[Levistone]]. The airship is the last transportation vehicle found by the Warriors of Light. It moves at a high speed, allowing the Warriors of Light to quickly travel around the overworld. The airship can only land on patches of grass, and if the warriors try to park it on any other terrain, the airship goes back up into the air. The Warriors of Light do not encounter any enemies while riding the airship. |

| The airship moves very fast, allowing the Warriors of Light to quickly traverse the overworld. The airship can only land on grassy terrain, and if the warriors try to park it on any other terrain, the airship goes back up into the air. The Warriors of Light do not encounter any enemies while riding the airship.
