The S.S. Moreltania is a royal cruise ship in Flown the Koopa. Its name is a pun on "morel," which is a type of fungus, and "RMS Mauretania," a twentieth-century English ocean liner constructed with new technology that let it hold speed records for years. Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, Yoshi, and Toad take the ship across the ocean to the International Dino-Flying Derby in Dinosaur Land. The Mushroom King is at the helm, although he simply presses the autopilot button and stares at it, a task he considers even tougher than ruling over the Mushroom Kingdom. They end up crashing into the island and running the ship aground, despite the king's insistence that all of the devices indicated that the ship was a mile away from shore. Everyone then leaves the ship, with Toadstool and Yoshi going on ahead to register for the events. After Mario and Luigi defeat the Magikoopa terrorizing the derby, they return to the S.S. Moreltania and leave the island.
