Okay, the slippery slope arguments in here are getting ridiculous. The entire game doesn't become "easy mode" just because they put in fast travel options. To highlight just how ludicrous this is, let's go in the opposite direction for all you "immersion only, no convenience" people:

- Your characters now get tired when fighting, and get debuffs based on their fatigue. You also have to eat and drink every few hours to survive.
- If you ignore these things, your character will die and be deleted from the server, and you will have to start over.
- The same goes for your Chocobo, if it isn't fed and watered constantly it will die.
- Time is based on real world days and minutes, store, markets and guilds close during the night and if you can't play during the day, you should re-prioritize the game over your real life.
- Airships and ferries now take 30 minutes to travel from one point to another, and land in port every real world hour.
- No teleportation of any kind ever.
- Walking speed is now the standard speed, as most people can't run everywhere without getting winded. Running can only be done in short bursts and your character will have to sit and rest if they are overexerted.
- Armor weighs your character down and makes you move slower.
- No linkpearls or LS chat, you all have to group up in one area to talk to each other.
- When monsters die they die permanently. If a team completes a dungeon run, those bosses will never come back.

It sounds ridiculous, because it is ridiculous. It's a game. Not a fantasy world you're magically transported into, a game. There have to be things made for convenience's sake.
