Heck there are games based on travel alone: all side scrollers 2D/3D (sonic, mario), shooters on rails, all racing games, jesus even the Legend of Zelda had mechanics to engage you while riding Epona.
It's 2013 and these devs think you can't make travelling fun because it's a god damn MMO!? Why are we funding this?????!!!!!!!!111111
Damn it flight paths wouldn't be so bad if they were shooters on rails, get some loot and achieves on the way to that flight point why not.
