The implementation of chocobos will go something like this:

Players: "Cool we got chocobos!"

Players ride around on chocobos for an hour

Player A: "Let's go do some leves"

Player B: "OK. Got my leves."

Player A: "All right. Teleporting to BW."


Chocobos will only serve as a backup to anima in XIV. When people run out of the TP juice, the chocos will come out. Unless, they have another purpose... Which is probably why they have hinted at chocos doing something more than just transporting our sorry butts and also why they probably aren't in yet.
