-'''Funky's Flights II''' is the direct successor of [[Funky's Flights]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. It transports [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] to a previously visited world or location.
+'''Funky's Flights II''' is an air travel service operated by [[Funky Kong]] in both ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. It transports [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] to a previously visited world or location. It is the direct successor of [[Funky's Flights]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', but with a {{wp|Roman numeral}} (II) added at the end.
 == History ==
 ===''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''===
-In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Funky operates a Funky's Flights II in every world except for the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lost World]]. Like its predecessor, Funky's Flights, it is the only other alternative for Diddy and Dixie to access a world they have previously visited. Funky allows them to do so by renting the [[Funky Barrel]], the successor of the [[Jumbo Barrel]]. This sends them to [[Crocodile Isle]]'s world map, where they can select a world and then a level of it. The screen also moves up and down slightly when the Kongs are in the location.

+In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Funky operates a Funky's Flights II in every world except for the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lost World]]. Like its predecessor, Funky's Flights, it is the only other alternative for Diddy and Dixie to access a world they have previously visited. Funky allows them to do so by renting the [[Biplane Barrel]], the successor of the [[Jumbo Barrel]]. This sends them to [[Crocodile Isle]]'s world map, where they can select a world and then a level of it. The screen also moves up and down slightly when the Kongs are in the location.
 When they first use the Funky Barrel in a world, Funky charges them two [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]]s, a change from the original Funky's Flights, where [[Donkey Kong|DK]] and Diddy use it for free. For consecutive uses, Diddy and Dixie can use it for free. This is the inverse of when [[Wrinkly Kong|Wrinkly]] first saves the game progress for free in each world's [[Kong Kollege]] but then charges them subsequently.
-Funky's Flights II takes place on a giant surfboard, with a wooden shack in the corner. The shack has antennas on its roof and a few objects lying outside such as a tire and a beach ball.
+Funky's Flights II takes place on a giant surfboard. There is a wooden shack in the corner with antennas on its roof and a few objects lying outside of it, such as a tire and a beach ball. The Jumbo Barrel is in the background, toppled over behind the "FUNKY flights" sign. Funky's surfboard from ''Donkey Kong Country'' is also lying on top of the shack. To reflect how Funky's Flights II takes place on a surfboard, the screen slowly moves up and down.
-Funky's Flights II was significantly changed in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake. Funky no longer offers flight services but instead hosts a [[Funky's Flights (Bonus Game)|Funky's Flights]] challenge in each world. His location appears more simplistic, and Funky is repositioned from the left side of the screen to the right. The redesign makes it more evident of the location's setting on a giant surfboard.

+In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, Funky's Flights II was significantly changed. Funky no longer offers flight services but instead hosts a [[Funky's Flights (Bonus Game)|Funky's Flights]] challenge in each world, and it is accessed via a [[Golden Barrel]]. The reward for completing each challenge is a [[DK Coin]], and the best time is shown on a scoreboard to the left. Funky's Flights II has a simpler appearance, and Funky is on the right side instead of the left. The redesign makes it more evident that Funky's Flights II takes place on a giant surfboard. The screen no longer moves up and down, although the clouds in the background are animated and move quickly. Despite this, the world map icon for Funky's Flights II, which is a light green surfboard with a palm tree and a shack, slowly moves up and down.
-The Kongs can no longer exit a world by completing a boss rematch, which are converted into time attack challenges hosted by [[Swanky Kong|Swanky]]. Diddy and Dixie's only option to access other worlds is from the {{button|GBA|Start}} menu's [[Gyrocopter]] option (which replaces the original version's Funky Barrel). This option is unlockable, as Funky first wants the Diddy and Dixie to prove their capability of using the Gyrocopter by completing "Aerial Loop", the Funky's Flights challenge of [[Gangplank Galleon]].
