Mastering Flight in Minecraft: Creative and Survival Modes

Flying in Minecraft: Creative or Spectator Mode

If you're playing in Creative or Spectator mode in Minecraft, flying is relatively simple. Just follow these steps to enjoy the sensation of free flight:

Step 1: To initiate flight mode, press the jump button twice in quick succession (usually the “Space” key on your keyboard).

Step 2: Adjusting altitude. While in flight mode, you can hold down the jump button (Space) to ascend. To descend, press and hold the “sneak” button (typically defaulting to the “Shift” key) when executing flight in Minecraft's creative mode.

Step 3: Increasing flight speed. You can boost your flight speed by holding down the sprint button (typically “Ctrl” or “W”).

Step 4: Ending the flight. To return to walking mode, simply double-tap the jump button (Space) once more. That concludes your adventurous journey through the Minecraft world with this exhilarating flying method.

When flying in Creative or Spectator mode, you don't need to worry about taking damage from falling. However, avoid falling into empty spaces (like gaps between islands in The End) to prevent losing lives.

How to Fly in Minecraft Survival Mode with Elytra

Differing from the previous modes, to fly in Survival mode, you need to find the Elytra item. Below is a detailed guide on how to locate Elytra and utilize this item for flight.

Finding Elytra

Elytra can be found within the End Ship - a part of The End and the domain of the Ender Dragon. Here's how to find it:

To access the End Ship, you must defeat the Ender Dragon. Each time you defeat the Ender Dragon, two gateways will appear. One gateway leads to the game's conclusion and returns you to the initial world, while the other opens into the space of The End islands. You'll want to enter the second gateway.

For those unwilling to confront the Ender Dragon, there's an alternative: constructing a bridge from the Ender Dragon's lair to the End City. However, this method requires over 1000 resource blocks to complete. Overall, while it consumes more resources and time, this method is relatively safe as you won't have to battle the fearsome dragons.

After approaching the island in the End City, you need to find the location of the End Ship. Once you've found the End Ship, head to the floor paved with black Obsidian. Here, the Elytra is placed within a display frame, between two chests guarded by a Shulker.

To obtain the Elytra, you need to break the display frame. Once you've acquired the Elytra, you've completed half of the journey to execute flight in survival mode.

Flying with Elytra

Once you've obtained the Elytra, you can use this item to fly in Survival mode. Note that flying in Minecraft Survival mode differs from the other two modes, Survival and Spectator. Therefore, you'll need to learn a different flying technique when using the Elytra item. Detailed guide:

Step 1: To initiate flight, you need to equip the Elytra in the chest slot of your character.

Step 2: Find a location with significant altitude, jump off the edge, and immediately press the jump key to deploy the Elytra wings.

Step 3: While in mid-air, pay attention to certain physical impacts. For instance, if you fly at too steep an angle, you may crash into the ground instantly.

Additionally, colliding with any surface at high speeds can result in injuries or even death. In case you descend too deeply, you can use fireworks from the tool bar to increase speed, altitude, and ascend.

After flying for a while, the Elytra will wear out and decrease flying speed over time. In such cases, you can combine two damaged Elytra to create a new one. This way, you can perform the Elytra flight technique in Minecraft several more times.
