Anyone, simplified what I meant: A conscientious chocobo owner who needs to eat and sleep, as well as walking a third of the way to allow the chocobo to rest, and is in a hurry would plan for at least 1 month to get from Gridania to Ul'dah. 1 and a half to 2 months by foot without a chocobo (if you get there a couple of days early, well, at least you don't have to miss anything!).
This is assuming that the open type of airship they use take 24 hours between the two (per an off-hand remark by an NPC when I first traveled the airship, which I might have hallucinated or something) as well as going on an average speed of 30km/h.
Basically:
24h * 30km = 720km by air.
Then I added some distance to account for the fact that walking the earth isn't as plain and straight-forward as going by air, and said 1200km. But for all we know, travelling by land might easily be 1500km, which would probably increase the 1 month to 1 month and 2-3 weeks, and by foot, it would take about 2 months and 1-2 weeks.
