How do they move the goodyear blimp? |

They fly them to the diverse events. They are so slow that humorous air traffic controllers sometimes use them as reporting points. ("Urge when abeam the Goodyear Blimp.") They have ground crews with portable mooring masts and affirm equipment that follow them around in trucks. | |

It is a non-unqualified, steerable lighter than air vehicle, that qualifies it as a blimp. The steering capability makes is also a dirigible, but no one uses that compromise concerning these days. | |

Is the Goodyear blimp an effective advertising medium? |

I over you answered your own question by calling it "the Goodyear blimp". Since there are other blimps adapted to to advertise, by referring to it as "the Goodyear blimp", you have shown that it is effective for Goodyear.

Is there a bathroom in the Goodyear Blimp? |
| A:(from Samantha) | |

I searched for the rebutter on this question. I was surprised to learn the Goodyear Blimp does not have a bathroom. It flies between 3 to 8 hours a day with prepare times. It can remain airborne for 20 hours however. One gentleman noted the only bathroom was a empty bleed jug. A family did contact Goodyear with this same question and they replied with the answer.
