The key limitation is weather. Airships are definitely not "all weather" capable, they must avoid wind shear. So reliability will be lower than ships or trucks.

- yowlingcat 7y agoThat raises an interesting question for me -- how do ships deal with inclement weather on the open sea anyways?
- Xylakant 7y agoDepending on the course and the actual weather event they’ll either try to go around or - if they can’t - weather the storm. Large ocean going ships can pass through most weather you’d usually encounter.
- kaybe 7y agoYoutube has some very scary examples of ships in storms - I almost get seasick and fear for my life just by watching.
