What would flying help in? Running away?

Percy has a more convincing way of defeating enemies. He killed Polybotes basically by himself. He defeated the anti-water, when all his water power became useless.(He won with help of a boundary god). Enceladus is a little giant compared to others and Jason needed the king of gods to help him. Where was his flying?
