Valor and virtue ride with me, my blade defends the helpless,
my might upholds the weak, my words speak only truth,
my wrath undoes the wicked!

Nice mate :)
Boat travel is probably my favourite. I really enjoyed waiting to get on a boat at a pier, meeting other travelers heading the same direction. Usually, you'd end up striking up a conversation that would last until your destination (and sometimes even friendships that lastest longer). I'd love to see more group based modes of transportation. For example, a caravan that leaves every 30 minutes from one city to another, that travels at a speed much faster than normal walking or spell augments. This would help bringing people together in their travels.
I loved the starships in SWG: JtLS. It was so awesome to jump into my ship (loved the Eta-2 Actis-class Interceptor) fly around in space, take hyperspace routes to spaceports and travel for free, and of course fight the filthy Rebel scum! :P
It was really fun when you took up a larger ship because you can get out of the pilot seat and run around your ship, put furniture and decorations in it just like a house :D
This is just a random pic for the Eta-2 from SWGEMU. I painted mine purple and yellow when I played :D
Clearly "walking". Yes, simply "walking" or "running"... Maybe a Horse (like in EQ) was cool, but not more. I know, this isnt the topic, but most "fast travel"-features kills the 'size of the world'. I prefer to explore 'by walking', not w/ a flying mount or similar, cause youll miss soooo much. Also you 'learn', how far something is away from A to B, you learn the danger and stuff like that. Wasnt it cool, to run with a friend or a group, from Freeport to Oasis of Marr (or other places) and even 'on the way' there, you had adventures, killing spiders, seeing rare spawn... WALKING! :).
Flying is always a good way to travel and gives an awesome view of the landscapes. And walking is great if exploring is your thing. But walking only makes the game real slow if you eed to get from a "freport" to a "Qeynos". You always can walk if prefered but we need the quicker forms of travel in the game. So my vote is flying mounts and ports for those real important travels you need to hurry to.

That is my favourite too, by far! I loved my Venerable Griffons and what I went through on each character to get them and help others :D
My answer has 2 parts....
Besides by foot because I love running around on foot because I like to kill and gather as I go places.....

Though I will admit boat travel is second favorite (leisurely pace, love that ocean spray, even getting dumped occasionally).
Flying is fun once you reach the destination, but during the journey I have to take in the scenery from the ground.
