I like this BBC article on zeppelin travel.
Flying from a different perspective
Helium is now used as buoyancy for airships, this is sometimes called non-flammable helium as if there is another kind. There is not.
And this light gas is more inert than water. It certainly cannot catch fire.
Its a safe way to travel, a bit slow and leisurely, but it appeals to my senses. Definitely an ecological/green way of doing things, perhaps its an air travel alternative of the future that is ready for the present.
