'''Bowser's Airship''' is an [[airship]] with [[Bowser]]'s face on the front and back. Like other airships, it is equipped with [[Cannon]]s, [[Bullet Bill]]s, [[Burner]]s and [[Bob-omb]]s and its size and design varies from game to game. [[Princess Peach]] is usually held captive on this ship whenever Bowser captures her.

Bowser's Airship, referred to as the '''Doom Ship''', appears regularly throughout ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Like the airships in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the Doom Ship is equipped with a large amount of artillery and also possesses a trait not seen in any games featuring airships: the ability to teleport to other locations. According to the bonus disc on the Shout! Factory DVD set, the Doom Ship was built by [[Ludwig von Koopa|Kooky von Koopa]].

In [[World-e]] of ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Bowser's Airship is the setting of two levels, both of which feature [[Bowser]] being fought as the boss at the end.

Bowser's Airship, now colored white and purple and heavily decorated, appears in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. The airship has undergone a small redesign, now sporting fifteen propellers instead of five, sails, what appear to be [[Power Moon]] tanks and a variety of smaller embellishments. Rather than the usual theme, the new airship theme from ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' for the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' style plays during scenes in which it flies away.

In the premade world for the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', Bowser's Airship from ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' can be found near the entrance to the [[Valley of Bowser]].

Bowser's Airship appears near the end of ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', after [[Mario]] and [[Olivia]] have destroyed all five streamers. Instead of the ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' design, it resembles one of the airships from ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' but with the Bowser figurehead in the front and has eight propellers this time. It is stored inside a garage in an indoor hangar of Bowser's Castle until Mario presses a button (next to the one that Kamek had pressed by mistake) that makes the airship emerge from the garage and dock itself at the hangar. Once the remnants of Bowser's army all climb aboard, they travel to [[Peach's Castle]], but are intercepted by [[King Olly]]'s [[Paper Plane Squadron]]. The minions manage to fend some of them off with their own weaponry, while Mario picks up the slack via a [[Bob-omb]] cannon hidden within the ship's figurehead, but everyone is caught off guard when a particularly large plane crashes into the ship's side, sending it and its occupants crashing into [[Hotfoot Crater]]. Though the ship is beyond repair, its cannon is still functional, as Mario, Olivia, and Bowser use it to blast themselves the rest of the way to the castle.
