Airship travel involves using large, lighter-than-air vehicles, known as airships, to transport passengers and cargo. These airships are filled with gases like helium or hydrogen, which allow them to float in the atmosphere. They are typically slower than airplanes but can offer a unique and scenic way to travel, often flying at lower altitudes. Airships have a long history, dating back to the early 20th century, with famous examples like the Hindenburg. Today, they are used for various purposes, including tourism, advertising, and surveillance. Their ability to hover and maneuver in tight spaces makes them versatile for specific applications.
