Real Time Airship Travel

The problem is that the world is separated with countless loading screens. It is not one vast open world so that wouldn't be possible to implement.

I don't see a problem
It would be only 2 loading screens
1. loading screen the moment you get loaded on the ship
2. Airship fly in a special zone, where you can see Eorzea under you
3. Leave the ship with another loading screen

Example the 1.0 ferry ride, it happened also in a zone and not in the seamless world:

Ah, I thought OP meant it like when flying on WoW. I would much more prefer to fly through the actual game world, with people down doing stuff. Special zone? Meh, I would just teleport.

I hate the fragmentation of the world so much in this game.

Whilst that'd be awesome, I don't think it'll ever happen unfortunately. And as you said, the way the game world is broken up at the moment makes it tricky.

(Kinda reminds me when you're walking somewhere irl and you look up and there's a airplane, like woah people livin' their own little lives inside that thing)
