Flying keys are variants of regular Keys that appear in the Nintendo Switch remake of Mario vs. Donkey Kong. They are similar to the keys in Super Mario Maker and its sequel, where they will follow a player after coming into contact with one. There are two colors of flying keys - gold and silver, which differ both in behavior (when not following the player) and function.
A gold flying key appears only in the various bonus levels in the game, where it will start flying away from the player as soon as they try to appproach it. As more time passes, said flying key will eventually slow down, allowing the player to catch it and bring it to the chest to collect five 1-Up Mushrooms.
Silver flying keys appear only in multiplayer, and appear in both regular levels and Mini-Mario (mm) levels. They float in one spot of the level, and can be picked up in a similar fashion. The locked door or toy box will be chained with a silver lock, which requires a silver flying key in order for the players to progress. If a player is defeated while a flying key is present, they will lose the key, and it will float towards a spot near where the player has been defeated. The remaining player will have a few seconds to grab the key before it disappears and respawns back in its original location.

Trivia
- 34 years prior to the release of the Mario vs. Donkey Kong remake, unused content in Super Mario World features a semi-functional flying variant of the Key with wings, which can turn into a regular Key if eaten and spat out by Yoshi.
