Enable Flight on Your Minecraft Server

By default, the server kicks players detected as flying (without creative mode). Enable it in server.properties:

allow-flight=true

When to Enable

• If you use mods that add flying (Elytra boosters, jetpacks, flying mounts)
• If players get "kicked for flying" while using lag-related movement glitches
• If you run a creative or build server

When to Keep Disabled

• Vanilla survival servers where flight = cheating
• PvP servers where flying gives unfair advantage

📝 Note: This does NOT give players creative-mode flight. It only prevents the anti-cheat from kicking players who are detected as airborne.
