==General Information==
Mounts allow players to travel around [[Eorzea]] faster. After acquiring a mount, you can ride it by dragging the icon onto your action bar. Players can acquire their first mount, [[Company Chocobo]], by playing through the [[Main Scenario Quests|main story]] and joining a [[Grand Company]] at around level 20. Players must also complete the quest "My Little Chocobo" given by an NPC located within their Grand Company Building. Other mounts can be acquired by completing different requirements. [[Heavensward]], FFXIV's first expansion introduced [[#Flying Mounts|Flying Mounts]].

*All mounts have the same movement speed increase.

*Enemies can still attack you while you are mounted. They can potentially injure your mount, slowing its movement speed significantly.

==Flying Mounts==
[[File:SingleRider.jpg|right|A image of the Single Rider Airship]]
Flying mounts are introduced in [[Heavensward]], revealed at the Fan Festival in London 2014. Flying Mounts allow the players to take to the sky and roam the areas of Heavensward freely. Many of the previously [[#Types of Mounts|ground mounts]], such as [[Company Chocobo]], will be able to fly. To do this, you will need to complete the quest [[I Believe I Can Fly]], located near the chocobo stables in Ishgard. Players can only fly in [[locations]] in Heavensward such as [[Ishgard]] and [[Coerthas Western Highlands]]. While flying, the flying mounts have 200% of the speed of a regular ground mount. While running on ground, the flying mounts will be the same speed as a ground mounts (100%).

*You can escape enemies on the ground by flying.

===Unlock===
Players can unlock flying mounts through the [[Main Scenario Quest]] [[Divine Intervention]]. Before flying in a zone, players need to attune with the [[Aether Currents]] in that zone. Players can check their attunement progress through the Aether Currents window under [[Travel]] in the main menu. Some Aether Currents are found in the zone while others are obtained by completing [[quests]]. Players are provided with an [[Aether Compass]] to aid them in their search.
*If you lose your Compass you can talk to [[Gibrillont]] at the [[Forgotten Knight]] to get a new one.

===Controls===
After attuning to a zone, press the jump key while riding a flying mount to fly.
