At the start of the race, the racers are aboard an Airship, and the Mario Kart banner reads: "Jr. Jr." with a picture of [[Bowser Junior]]'s [[Clown Car]] on it, indicating that the Airships in this course are owned by Bowser Junior. When the racers start, they head down to the end of the Airship where a ramp with a ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''-like star booster is above it. When the racers jump off of the ramp, they still continue on another Airship with a curve to the right, approaching the first set of [[Item Boxes]].

After the curve to the right, the racers then enter inside of an Airship, with a sign hanging above the entrance on the ceiling, reading: "The road of pirates to Bowser's ship". The racers are inside the Airship for a very short time, as it is almost immediate that they exit. Once they exit, there is another ramp with another star booster, except this one is rainbow-colored, as the last one was a bright yellow.  
The player starts out on an airship, where multi-colored [[Shy Guy]]s spectate the race. First, the player must head down to the end of the airship, which features a ramp with a ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''-like yellow star booster. After that, the player reaches another airship, where a curve to the right leads to the first set of [[Item Box]]es and multi-colored banners featuring the [[Koopalings]]. After a curve to the right, the racers then enter another airship with [[Fly Guys]] above the track, with a sign above the entrance reading "The road of pirates to Bowser's ship". Once the player exits, there is another ramp with a rainbow star booster.  


Once the racers jump off the ramp, they land on a twisty road made out of clouds similar to the layout of Cloudtop Cruise. About halfway through the cloudy road, the racers approach thier second set of Item boxes.
Next, the player lands on a twisty road made out of clouds, which is similar to [[Cloudtop Cruise]]. Item Boxes can be found about halfway through the cloud section. After the cloudy road, the player boards a bridge that goes uphill, leading them inside another airship. In this section, there is a sign featuring a [[Paragoomba]] and a [[Koopa Paratroopa]] that reads "Cargo Bay". This airship features multi-colored gears and light blue smoke inside of it, with [[Monty Mole]]s spectating the race. Then, the road curves to the right, where the player exits the airship with a [[Glide Ramp]] shortly after.


After the winding, cloudy road, the racers board a bridge that goes uphill, leading them inside another Airship. The bridge is being held up by chains on both sides connecting to the Bowser head that is on the front of the Airship. Upon entry, there is a sign hanging from the ceiling that reads: "Cargo Bay", with a picture of a [[Paragoomba]] and a [[Paratroopa]] on the sides.
The player glides over another airship with cannons equipped on both sides. After that, the player curves right in a sandy road. Once the curve ends, the player enters a structure with a sign on the top, which reads "Control Room". Upon entry, the road turns into a carpet. The ceiling of this section features many propellers. After a split path, the player can reach a ramp with a star booster above it, which leads to the [[Finish Line]].


Inside this Airship, their is a bunch of multi-colored gears and light blue smoke. It is also pretty dark inside as it could possibly be a factory for making cargo for the Airship's to haul, as seen on the sign when the racers had just entered. Then, the road curves to the right, as the racers exit the Airship with a Glider Ramp shortly after.
