The Cheep Blimp is a large, Cheep Cheep-shaped blimp that appears in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door as the primary mode of transportation from Rogueport to Glitzville. Stewart checks tickets to ride it. The Cheep Blimp's only purpose is to take Mario to the floating town of Glitzville. Mario must obtain a Blimp Ticket from Don Pianta in order to ride the Cheep Blimp.
The music accompanying the Cheep Blimp's flight is an arrangement of the "Athletic Theme" from Super Mario Bros. 3.
During Bowser's segment between Chapters 4 and 5, Bowser attempts to board the blimp, but Stewart proceeded to flee with the blimp upon recognizing him in fear.
An unrelated Cheep Cheep-themed blimp appears in Luigi Circuit from Mario Kart Wii.
