Whats things/spells/anything allows you to fly? I understand the Fly skill does not give you the ability to fly, simply the capacity to be good at it, so what things give you flight?
Cheaper the better, also if its important its for a level 7 character that has 4 levels in Arcanist and Magical Knack
Potions, scrolls, wands. Fly is a third level spell, so a scroll will cost 375 gp, a potion 750 gp, and a wand 11,250 gp.
Scrolls are best at low levels—just invest heavily in Use Magic Device. Or, if you trust an NPC to carry around your most valuable possessions, hire a level one "Arcana Manipulator" expert to cast the scrolls on you.
Always have at least one potion if possible, especially if you don't trust that expert.
The wand is beyond a doubt the best solution, when you can afford it.
Oh, and wondrous items. Boots of flying cost 16,000 gp and give you either five minutes or fifteen minutes per day of flight. The broom of flying costs 17,000 gp and just gives overland flight, but doesn't have any meaningful limit to your daily usage.
Wings of flying are best (constant 60 ft. flight, +5 competence bonus on Fly checks), but they cost a total of 54,000 gp.
Carpet of Flying (20,000-60,000 gp)
Fly 3rd level
Beast Shape 1 3rd level spell
Monstrous Physique 3rd level spell
Not as cheap as I was hoping lol, thats ok though, thanks guys!
Even less expensive is the Empyreal Knight at 20th level that gets wings for free. Ok their free, but you have to wait until 20th level.
Celestial Armour.
Be a Sylph, it costs 2 feats (airy step and wings of air).

Here's what you do:
Use yourself as an improvised ranged weapon.
A spot on the ground has AC 5; throw yourself at one.
It may take several attempts, but you have at least a 5% change to miss, so keep at it and eventually you'll fail to hit the ground.
Congratulations! You are now flying!(special thanks to Douglas Adams)
Yep. And make sure you craft your wondrous cloaks as towels. A towel is about the most massively useful thing an adventurer can have.
I thought I'd also add a list of classes that can get Fly as an ability or spell:
- Alchemist (can take the Wings discovery or use the spell)
- Magus
- Sorcerer
- Wizard
- Summoner
- Witch (Flight hex or spell)
- Cleric (Feather subdomain or Air Walk at 9th level)
- Oracle (Air Walk or revelation)
- Druid
- Ranger (Beast Master/Griffon Rider Archtypes or bird animal companion (see below))
Also, any small race could theoretically take the Nature's Soul and Animal Ally feats to get a small bird companion. The bird never grows to medium, but you could use Potions of Reduce Person (and eventually get a Permanent Reduce Person cast on you for just 2500 GP) to be able to become Tiny and ride it. A reach weapon should let you reach the squares around you so you don't provoke for being Tiny. That being said, I wouldn't recommend it for melee builds. Could make for a quite memorable character, though...
