[[File:SMW CapeMario.png|thumb|Flying is an ability of [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]], as depicted in ''Super Mario World'']]

'''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 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.

Flying in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' can be done from a [[magic carpet]] temporarily after defeating the [[Pidgit]] on it.  

[[File:SMB3 - Raccoon Mario.png|left|thumb|140px|Flying can be done by [[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.

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]].

[[File:WingMarioSM64DS.png|thumb|150px|Flying can be done by [[Wing Mario]] in ''Super Mario 64'']]

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.

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.

[[File:SMG-Flying Mario Art.png|thumb|left|150px|Flying can be done by Flying Mario in ''Super Mario Galaxy'']]

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.

[[File:NSMBW Propeller Mario.png|thumb|80px|Flying can be done by [[Propeller Mario]] in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'']]

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.

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.

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.

[[File:Raccoon Mario - New Super Mario Bros 2.png|thumb|left|150px|Flying can be done by Raccoon Mario in ''New Super Mario Bros. 2''.]]

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.

[[File:NSMBU Flying Squirrel Mario Artwork.png|thumb|150px|Flying can be done by Flying Squirrel Mario in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'']]

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.

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====

Flying in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|its Nintendo Switch version]] can be done using Propeller Boxes, like in ''Super Mario 3D Land''.

Flying in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its Nintendo 3DS version]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' can be done by Raccoon Mario, Cape Mario, and Propeller Mario in the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', ''Super Mario World'', and ''New Super Mario Bros. 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''). Flying can be similarly done with the ([[Fire Koopa Clown Car|Fire]]) [[Koopa Clown Car]] ([[Junior Clown Car]] in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style).

Flying in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' becomes possible from certain [[capture]]s, such [[Paragoomba]]s and [[Glydon]].
