Airships could potentially be electric and solar powered. That would insulate it from fuel cost fluctuations. It would also resolve the issue with refueling.

Or you could just have a Terraform fuel plant synthesizing fuel colocated with every landing site.

The fuel plant doesn't have to be colocated with the pickup/delivery sites — you can do a fuel stop en-route if needed.

Is that you Casey? If so, though we disagree on the future of Airships, I love what Terraform is doing.
