The airship I took to Long Beach had motors with propellors which were part of a steering system. It was not wind-dependent but wind could give it trouble, particularly in landing and takeoff.
I found it a very comfortable and civilized way to travel, albeit more leisurely than most people would tolerate. If I can ever do a cross-continental journey or any other kind in an airship, I will. That one has now been returned to Europe as there was not enough interest in the US to keep it busy.
