The S.S. Flavion is a ship that Flavio owns. It is Flavio's favorite ship of the many ships he owns, and is used to sail to Keelhaul Key at first in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. However, the S.S. Flavion was sunken during the 'OO' day of the star month by ferocious pirate-ghost Embers, and the crew was washed up on the island of Keelhaul Key, many of them separated. They later made a small settlement on the island's shore.

Afterward, the ship used to get to and from Keelhaul Key is Cortez's haunted ship.

The S.S. Flavion makes an appearance as a variation of the Paper Mario stage in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. A Big Blooper based on the boss from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door can be seen in the background when the stage changes to the ship, and the whale from Paper Mario also occasionally appears from underneath, carrying the ship with its blowhole. If the song "Paper Mario Medley" is chosen for this stage, the music that plays during this variation is a cover of Rogueport's theme from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

Despite the prefix "S.S." which usually indicates a steamship, the S.S. Flavion is a sailing vessel.
