| '''Flying''' in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] is an ability in which player characters float in the air either temporarily or as long as desired. While characters such as [[Mario]] need a [[List of power-ups|power-up]] to fly, certain enemies such as [[Fly Guy]]s and [[Paragoomba]]s can fly without the aid of items. | | '''Flying''' is a move that is directly related to [[jump]]ing. It allows the player to float in the air for a certain period of time. While characters like Mario need a [[Power Up]] to fly, certain enemies like [[Fly Guy]]s and [[Paragoomba]]s can fly without the aid of items. |

| Flying in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Special]]'' can be done by having Mario use the [[Wing (Super Mario Bros. Special)|Wing]] power-up, allowing him to fly through the air similarly to the swimming mechanics.
| | The first game where Mario is able to fly is the remake to ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. Special]]''. The [[Wing (Super Mario Bros. Special)|Wing]] power-up allows him to fly through the air in a manner similar to the game's swimming mechanics. |

| Flying in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' can be done from a [[magic carpet]] temporarily after defeating the [[Pidgit]] on it.
| | In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', When Mario, [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] or [[Toad]] defeat [[Pidgit]], they are able to use its [[Magic Carpet]] to fly for a short time. |

| [[File:SMB3 - Raccoon Mario.png|left|thumb|140px|Flying can be done by [[Raccoon Mario]] in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'']] | | [[File:Raccoon Mario Artwork - Super Mario Bros. 3.png|left|thumb|140px|[[Raccoon Mario]] in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''.]] |
| Flying in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' can be temporarily done by [[Raccoon Mario]] or [[Tanooki Mario]] while the [[P-Meter]] is filled, usually from a running start. Flying can be done indefinitely through the effects of a [[P-Wing|Magic Wing]], until Mario either takes damage, grabs a non-flight-based power-up, or clears the current level.
| | In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', when the player picks up a [[Super Leaf]], they transform into [[Raccoon Mario]], and are then able to briefly fly after getting a running start. The [[Tanooki Suit]], a similar item, turns them into [[Tanooki Mario]], allowing them not only to fly, but also to [[Statue Mario|turn themselves into a statue]]. |
|

|
| ====''Super Mario World''==== | | ====''Super Mario World''==== |
| Flying in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' can be mainly done by [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]], though only after a running start, after which he soars as if he were [[glide|gliding]]. Flying can also be done by a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] eating a [[Shell|Blue Shell]] (or a Blue Yoshi eatinbg a shell), granting him [[Winged Yoshi|wings]] and allowing him to fly around for as long as the shell is held, or if the mounted Yoshi grabs [[Yoshi's Wings]]. Flying can also be temporarily by Mario riding a [[Lakitu's Cloud]].
| | In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', the player can pick up a [[Cape Feather]] to turn into [[Cape Mario]], which gives them the ability to fly. In the same game, if a [[Blue Yoshi]] ridden by the player eats a [[Shell|Koopa Shell]], the dinosaur gains his [[Winged Yoshi]] form and is then able to fly around. Alternately, the same result can be achieved with any other [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]], if the Yoshi eats a Blue Shell or grabs [[Yoshi's Wings]]. The player can also steal [[Lakitu's Cloud]], which also allows them to fly for a while. |

| [[File:WingMarioSM64DS.png|thumb|150px|Flying can be done by [[Wing Mario]] in ''Super Mario 64'']] | | In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', Mario can break open red [[! Block]]s to obtain the [[Wing Cap]], which allows him to fly for a limited time after he performs a [[Triple Jump]] or uses a [[Cannon]] to take off. |
| Flying in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' can be done by [[Wing Mario]] by performing a [[Triple Jump]] or using a [[Cannon]] to take off, but its effects last only as long as the power-up is active. Flying in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' remains an ability exclusive to Wing Mario, this time from collecting wings instead of a [[Wing Cap]], but the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] are able to obtain Wings in VS. mode.
| | |
| | ====''Super Mario 64 DS''==== |
| | [[File:WingMarioSM64DS.png|thumb|150px|[[Wing Mario]] flying.]] |
| | In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the Wing Cap is replaced by a feather, which is a Power Up exclusive to Mario. Only in the VS mode of this version is every character able to fly. |
|
| |
|
| ====''New Super Mario Bros.''==== | | ====''New Super Mario Bros.''==== |
| Flying in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' can be done by riding in a Lakitu's Cloud, like in ''Super Mario World'', or by using a [[Spin Block (New Super Mario Bros.)|Spin Block]] to charge upwards.
| | In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', the player gains the ability to fly after defeating [[Lakitu]] with a [[Fire Flower]], who then yields his cloud to the player. The player can also fly for a short amount of time using the [[Spin Block (New Super Mario Bros.)|Spin Block]]. |

| Flying in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' can be done by [[Flying Mario]] temporarily, after [[jump]]ing and [[spin]]ning in midair. Flying can also be done by [[Bee Mario]], though his flight is limited by a fly meter, changing color from green, to yellow, and finally to red as they fly. Once the bar is empty, they fall and are unable to fly until the flight meter fills up, which occurs by landing on a stable surface or by collecting [[Coin]]s). [[Boo Mario]] has the ability to float around in midair while the player presses {{button|wii|A}}. In his standard form. Mario can fly only by going through a [[Launch Star]], which puts him on to an automated flight path.
| | In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', flying returns. The player can collect the [[Red Star]] to become [[Flying Mario]]. The player must jump and then [[spin]] in midair to begin flying for a limited time. |
| | |
| | Another way to fly is by collecting a [[Bee Mushroom]], which turns the player into [[Bee Mario]]. The player's flight is limited by their fly meter, changing color from green, to yellow, and finally to red as they fly. Once the bar is empty, they fall and are unable to fly until the flight meter fills up, which occurs by landing on a stable surface or by collecting [[Coin]]s). The [[Boo Mushroom]], which transforms the player into [[Boo Mario]], also grants the ability to float in the air while pressing {{button|wii|A}}. Whenever the player goes through a [[Launch Star]], he goes into an automated flight. |

| [[File:NSMBW Propeller Mario.png|thumb|80px|Flying can be done by [[Propeller Mario]] in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'']] | | [[File:MarioPropella.png|thumb|80px|[[Propeller Mario]] flying.]] |
| Flying in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' can be done by [[Propeller Mario]], if the player shakes the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]], making him charge upwards similarly to the Spin Block from ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Like in ''New Super Mario Bros.'', flying is also doable from a Lakitu's Cloud temporarily through the same means.
| | In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', the player is able to fly after obtaining a [[Propeller Mushroom]] and shaking the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]. The player can also use Lakitu's cloud to fly around for a while. |

| ====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''==== | | ====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''==== |
| Flying in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' is performed in the same ways as in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', except Flying Mario, who does not return. Flying can additionally be done by [[Blimp Yoshi]] for a certain amount of time, during which the player is given some freedom to control his movement.
| | Flight returns in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', in the same way as it appeared in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', with the exception of the Red Star. [[Yoshi]] can also fly in this game by using the [[Blimp Berry]] to hover for a certain amount of time. |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
| |
| Flying in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' is only done from using [[Propeller Box]]es, since Raccoon Mario and even the P-Wing item does not allow for flying in this game and future 3D installments of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]]. Despite this, Mario and the [[Toad (species)|Toads]] from the intro are seen flying in the ending cutscene.

| Flying in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' is doable as Raccoon Mario, like in ''Super Mario Bros.'', but unlike said game, players can fly by just holding the jump button. Lakitu's Cloud can also be used to fly temporarily through the same means as before.

| Flying in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' can be accomplished from [[Flying Squirrel Mario]] or [[P Flying Squirrel Mario]] gliding in the air, similarly to Raccoon Mario or Caped Mario. Flying can be done continually by P Flying Squirrel Mario without touching the ground, although the effects wear off after one level.
| | In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', the player can obtain a [[Super Acorn]] to transform into [[Flying Squirrel Mario]]. This allows him to glide, similar to Raccoon Mario or Cape Mario.

U'' styles, respectively, functionally identical as in the original games. Flying can also be done from a Lakitu's Cloud temporarily, but this time there is the option to either stole or place a standalone on (except in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style of ''Super Mario Maker 2'').
