What is parity? This category is designed just for features that exist but work one way on one platform, and another way on a different platform. Bugs are not parity! Items in snapshots and betas are subject to change so please be sure to only post about things that are currently released in Minecraft. Please read the intro post before you post!

(Java Parity) Creative mode flight

When the player releases a movement key, they will decelerate at a rate of approximately 5 blocks per second per second. When stopping from top speed (~10 blocks/second), this results in approximately 4.5 blocks traveled after the stopping point.

After touching the ground, the player returns to normal ground movement.

    The bedrock's flying system is better imo. It allows for more precise movements and was implemented based on the console edition flight, which allows you to place blocks at the same speed you fly. It's pretty much essential for console players because of the inherent lack of precision from the controller itself

    In my opinion it would be fine if the current Bedrock flight could be platform-specific, if console players find it easier. On Win10 it should be like Java.

    The flight mechanics in bedrock/java editions should be a menu option, IMHO

    Totally agree, while some prefer it, it should be an option. It's very disorienting to me, and is one of the few things making windows 10 edition feel inauthentic.

    Created a new parity item to break out the flight ending when you land vs. the movement mechanics into a separate thing, as there may be different opinions on the two parts of the mechanics: https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/community/posts/360071966971--Java-Parity-Creative-mode-flight-should-end-when-you-land
