i.e
Traveling from Forgotten Springs to Ul'dah takes 2-3 days.
Traveling from the dead Goobue in Eastern Thanalan to the Amalj'aa encampment in the same map takes about a day.
I may be just a dummy, but I am not aware of "handily available IG travel times". Can someone tell me where to look up that information?
If there are cannon or widely agreed upon IG travel times then I would gladly go by those. However, I was not aware, so I've been making my best guesses about travel time.
I never ICly use airships, nor do I ICly use aetherytes. This is because my character is currently poor, and does not have authorization to use them because she is not a citizen of any city.
That said, if a person is wealthy, a powerful wizard or a government authorized diplomat or scholar then I see no reason why they can't ICly use the crystals or airships.
