I was there, Gandalf, but this is one of the reasons I never wanted to bring it back because I had no idea how much IRL time I wasted going to and from places using that airship along with it being outdated now we have mounts along with teleports since ARR.

Also, ppl are already annoyed that we can't immediately unlock all aether currents when we first arrive in the new zone and we can still like use said airships or walk to each place for RP reasons now in 2026 without wasting real life minutes on your own WoL if the idea of breaking immersion is a problem too.
