Instances and Parties?

[WindyGamer]

Does Western Thanalan even have instances right now? Aside from the new Endwalker areas, the only other zone that I can think of that has active instances is Mor Dhona/the Rising Stones. I don’t think Western Thanalan would have them, since it’s not considered high-traffic (despite its relevance in the ARR storyline).

A friend and I are playing right now and went from Limsa to Vesper bay on the boat and ended up in different instances. And didn't wanna run to Horizon to get into the same instance. So yes. Surprisingly, WT has instances apparently sometimes. But the point is that whether WT has instances right now or not, it might have and it's a pain to travel all the way to the Aetherite to change instances when the menu item could be right in the Travel menu. Just a QoL suggestion that has almost no cost to implement.
