I am so happy the airship ride is short!!!

In XI I liked that if you left a little earlier than the rest of your party for Kazhaam, you had a good 5 mins to take a break. No airship was over 10 mins long in XI, if I remember they were all closer to 5. Boat rides were longer like aht ughan boat ride is 15 mins, but you had that little break to set up crap, grab some food, do whatever. If time is a concern for you, you will be using anima, they said chocobos and airships are really just for to alleviate anima stress, casual/short time players will use anima and its an instant. Why complain?

1. If you had 5 minutes to go AFK on the ship, you had 5 minutes to go AFK anywhere. If your mind needs an excuse to be able to peel yourself off of the game...
2. Airship ride + waiting for it was easily ~15 mins wait
3. Anima as it is now goes too fast, maybe at some point it won't be so precious but until then...
4. Traveling between towns is needed so much because of guilds, leves, guildmark hunting, etc.
