Does instant transportation effect game immersion?

Airships have been empty for years and years, way before Abyssea came out. But I guess you haven't played 11 in awhile. We've moved on. Obviously, you haven't.

You still didn't clap your hands and turn up wherever you wanted either. Fast travel in XI always had some sort of downside wether it being the quest to get the teleport spell or the trip to get your outpost/craig crystals. Or the Besieged/Campaign you needed to gain points to use to warp all willy nilly.

I think XI did it right it allowed alot of transportation options but also had easy to obtain but limited supply of said warps.
