Fahrenheit

The Fahrenheit, also known as the Continental Circus, is the Airship available to the player in Final Fantasy X, though it is never called such in the game. In the beginning of the game, when Tidus is working with a group of Al Bhed salvagers led by Brother and Rikku, the airship is salvaged from the bottom of the ocean near Baaj Temple. It is properly unveiled much later in the story when the Al Bhed Home is under attack from the Guado. Cid helps the party escape and they destroy Home using missiles installed on the ship.

As they attempt to enter Bevelle, the airship is attacked by the Guardian Wyrm, Evrae, and a battle is staged on the deck of the Fahrenheit, using Trigger Commands to move the ship, which is damaged in the following after coming under fire from the Bevelle guard. After the party defeats Yunalesca, they are picked up by Cid and the remainder of the storyline is based within the airship.

During the assault on Sin, it is revealed that the Fahrenheit is equipped with very powerful laser cannons on either side. These lasers are strong enough to blast off Sin's fins after they are beaten down by the party. Unfortunately, the lasers break just before they can fire on Sin's head.

Unlike previous installments, there is no World Map overview and the player cannot actually fly the ship around Spira. Instead it is used more for quickly transporting from one location to another.

[edit] Trivia

  • The Airship of your characters in Squaresoft's game Bahamut Lagoon is called Fahrenheit (shortened to "Farnheit" in the English fan translation due to space issues).
  • The Final Fantasy Mechanical Arts depiction of the airship gives it the name Continental Circus, possibly its true official name.
  • Whilst the name of the Final Fantasy X airship is Fahrenheit, the name of the Final Fantasy X-2 airship is Celsius - both of which are temperature scales, possibly to show that there lies a connection between the two games.
