They need to design them so that they can dock at a port facility and get loaded and off-loaded by a crane.

@marrqi7wini54 While I think that land facilities are fine, I'd like them to be able to take advantage of shipping docks because they are already designed to handle large carrier vehicles. Dirigibles could lower themselves to the water surface near a harbor and maneuver into a dock perhaps with the help of a pilot tug. Hydrogen compression would be crucial for this approach and their underbelly would have to be flat instead of rounded, but it would give them the traffic network that they would need to become successful.
