Driftwood and Flairship are the names of two flying – sort of flying – ships in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4.
You can complete a variety of weekly Fortnite challenges on both ships, so it’s a good idea to know where The Driftwood and The Flairship locations are.
Completing a weekly challenge in Fortnite will reward you with 20,000 XP which will help you unlock new skins from the Battle Pass.

Fortnite Driftwood Location Explained
The Driftwood is the pirate ship floating above Lustrous Lagoon in Fortnite and the easiest way to reach it is to land on the deck of the ship at the start of a match.
The Driftwood, however, can be a popular landing spot, so if you want to tour the ship but avoid enemy players, you can use one of the four ascenders hanging from the ship.
Leaving the ship is much easier, as you can simply jump into the lagoon below. (Landing on solid ground is not recommended.)
Visiting The Driftwood will allow you to complete two challenges so far in Season 4:
- Emote at The Flairship, The Driftwood, and No Sweat Insurance
- Open chests or ammo boxes inside The Driftwood (3)
Both challenges will reward you with 20,000 XP for this season’s battle pass. You can also find a safe on The Driftwood, which is worth opening if you have two spare safe keys.
Fortnite The Flairship Location Explained
The Flairship is the last functioning IO Airship on the Fortnite map and can be found above the Rave Cave – not far from the giant panda’s creepy head. Like The Driftwood, the easiest way to reach The Flairship is to land on or near it at the start of the match.
There are a number of other ways to reach the Flairship though, such as climbing up the side of the nearby mountain until you reach the platform that allows you to enter the ship. You can also use the ascender that hangs from the airship!
As of this writing, there are two challenges you can complete on The Flairship this season:
- Emote at The Flairship, The Driftwood, and No Sweat Insurance
- Emote for 5 seconds in The Flairship
Each challenge will reward you with 20k XP, which will help you unlock more battle pass rewards.
